C8AX Tac Sign

[Ausmick]

This project has been on hold for a while. Had big rain here and washed out a heap of flood gates and with Christmas New year finding a camshaft wasn’t easy. Got one out of the States for $110 US, brand new, so no complaints there, was here in 9 days.

Have one door up and ready but the other door, while solid, has the latch mechanism missing altogether so will need to track another one down, or at least the mechanism ( does anyone know if another sort of truck used the same latch parts?).

Axle lamp was turned out by a mate of mine. He used 1¼ solid rod and the results were just what I was looking for.

Question......did the axle lamp have a lens (what colour) inserted into the barrel, if so, was it in the end or just infront of the globe?

Thankyou Rupert from Perth for the Delco shock - its been painted and bolted on Rupert
