An Introduction: Chris Collins and Morris Tilly Project

The petrol filler cap: Might be worth checking if somebody can make one on a 3D printer .

These are a Bedford GS MW body, the Morris CS8 has a similar setup, the actual size of the removable section seems to be smaller on the Morris.

Making one is fairly simple. Finding the right plastic filiment, that is petrol and sun resistant is the problem.

I'm not sure you'd bother 3d printing, just use the cap as a master and cast it in a resin, should be quite fuel resistant using the right formulation.

This rear timber piece has been added. It was a bit confusing to work out as it was missing on all our wrecks and didnt make sense until Andrew Bloxham sent some clarifying photos from the UK. Thanks Andrew.

Tailgate put together over the last couple of days. I first glued and clamped the planks together then assembled the outside frame complete with mortise and tenon joins and then glued and clamped that all together.

Hello Jack,

You may have mentioned it earlier Jack and I have not caught the details. However, could you please identify the trade name and common name for the "timber" you are using on the truck body?

Kind Regards
Lionel
