Default Windscreen Braces

Hi Andrew - another one saved, good onya. This one has the interesting adaptation of the bracing pieces attached to the roof/windscreen area. This was subject of a 2004 thread started by KEEFY. I've pasted the link below so hopefully it will work. Someone please tell me how I can convert this long link title to something like "Here".

Default It Lives

Got her breathing and spitting fire today
good reason ford put v8 in them -if you average out the operating cylinders you end up with 6 anyway
usual fuel feed problems and sticking starter motors
fixed that problem though when i attached the other ford starter

Default evolution

It is always interesting to see the changes or evolution in models even in the same cab type
This would have to be one of the best in this model
First picture is of an earlier cab 12 one piece (not easy removeable ) engine side cover
The second later model cab 12 multi piece covers
Have now got the latest running on 7 cylinders with the final cylinder having either a stuck or burnt valve
