Tailgate fits very nicely. We need to make another set of hinges as we only had one set.

Hello Jack,
Thank you for the reply and for naming the timber as Mountain Ash. Is this the Mountain Ash you are referring to Accessed September 19, 2017 from https://www.woodsolutions.com.au/species/ash-mountain Kind Regards Lionel

As mentioned above, (despite Chris amassing 10% of all the Morris Tillys that came to Australia), we only had one set of tailgate hinges from all the remains.
Each hinge is a strange shaped cast piece with a fixed pin which holds the long upright flat piece. It also has slightly raised bumps where the bolt holes are.

A piece of 4" heavy angle iron gave me the shape to cut down to form the hinge base. The rest involved a bit of lathe work, angle grinding and file work. The raised bumps are little pieces turned on the lathe and bronzed on.
