Hi MLU'ers
Please have a look at the pics of my HUP hatch, I need at least one copy of this hatch so I'm planning a rebuild. Does anybody have spare parts of the hatch locking system like the grips or the blocks which holds the system in place?? Anybody amongst you who did this rebuild? Would also need more information on the rollers on the outside and the grip locking system, it looks like the grips lock into the tubing when not in use, would like to have more info on that locking system and how to rebuild this. Questions, questions questions........ |

Some heavy metal body building going on.
After a lot of measurements we finally continued on the body building of the C8A, we try to get the frame finished by this year so that we can start sandblasting, and add primer. when ready things will move fast I guess, with an new soft skin this lady will shine again |

Saturday we finished the first part of the new body frame.
Old and new are now firmly connected again. We will now proceed with sandblasting first and ad red primer, in the meantime looking at reconstructing the roof. |

The body is on its way to the blaster, first of the rebuild is now done , I have the frame sandblasted to see where there's more work / welding to do.
The sheeting on the side of the reserve probably needs some attention and there's one more spot on the roof, otherwise I think she's pretty solid. |
