Default New Tires

I've been tinkering away and have almost got my F8 sitting on new rubber, I have just one more rim to weld together. Once she is able to roll I will get a few more pictures of it inside and out

Had a lovely sunny day and decide it was a good idea to pull the old girl out for a few photos and tinkering. Roof will be cut at damaged section and stored until needed

1. outside for the before pictures
2. Damage from the prairie winds
3. Test fit the hood from Bob Carrie
4. Roof off, my girlfriends son Ethan is my helper this weekend
5. Stash of parts that I brought home from Ontario

I should have thought of this the first time I saw the thread. I don't have a clue who to ask for wartime Mulliner RAF bus drawings, but I know someone who does ...

The VK62B Dodge belonging to Rick Jones had a wartime Mulliner body, and as you can see here;

http://www.oldclassiccar.co.uk/dodgehistory.htm

... he got a copy of the body drawings from somewhere. Find Ricks e-mail - he is the admin of that site, and ask him where he got the body drawings maybe?
