The step in the stick is normal, the photo here gives the illusion that the gear stick is bent back or as we say round here "banana'd"..... I have checked and it's straight....

I got the mix to work to this grade in about three days.... But it really really stinks !
You need to remember that my budget is minuscule, I cannot throw wads of money at it like others can, so instead of spending hundreds in blasting (which won't us seize bolts anyway) I spend £30 on molasses which lasts me six months. It's top notch on seized track too, as Shaun says you cannot be in a rush when using it though. Don't waste your money blasting track........ It just comes back clean and seized ![]() Molasses Rock hahahahahahahaha

Well got a call from machine shop engine is done... Shall have her built up during the course of next week, then just need to add some fuel and spark, and I can see if I have built a dud !
I finally managed to fit the steering bolt into the base of the column which was a relief ! The steel is ordered for the rod linkages, so it is all coming together now.... I am on the hunt for the armour flap that sits over the gunners aperture to copy if anyone is willing to let me borrow one for a couple of weeks ? A pal of mine is up for a crack at making one for me. Cheers Richie
