Default CGT update

Guys, finally finished the #27 limber.

Been an extremely busy summer! Many events, but in the few days I had free I finally debugged the FAT, everything is working as it should, brakes don't pull, steering doesn't shake, most of the fluids stay in, it doesn't get better than that. It's no longer challenging to drive.

That's a 37 MM borrowed from our US brothers at the Arlington Air show this year. Twenty five pounder anyone?

Cheers Walde

Default CGT restoration

Love this thread ,
I'm at the starting point for the restoration of 2 gun tractors , a Ford and a Chevrolet.
It'll be a challenge to reproduce the complete 7B2 body (X2)

Default Thanks for bringing older thread to light

Hi Frankie and Philip

Thanks guys for bring an older thread back to the foreground. Caused me to go back and reread the entire thread from beginning again. While many of us read all the new post regularly most hit the View First Unread button so we skip over the older post.

This thread has a lot of information about a great restoration project.

Cheers Phil
