Mine is a January 1944 Ford T-16. Slow but stead progress as the first shot will indicate as you can see the partially striped hull on jack stands. Progressive shots show some of the work that is done now. The rear end is completely finished now but I haven't taken any shots of it. Without a gantry and no way to roll a complete assembly over gravel, I had to assemble it one piece at a time onto the vehicle. My engine and tranny are also compelte and sitting in my smaller car garage on dollies. I need to finish building oil cooler lines and two more steering linkage rods before I can drop it in. Good thing about working in a tent is I can roll up the sides for cooler airflow as we get heat here like you do in southern OZ. Plus I can paint with my compressor and gun in there without real worry about overspray getting onto the walls. You have to look a the good side of any bad situation I guess
