Snail's pace Blitz rebuild

[Private_collector]

G' Day Ryan!

Just wanted to say hello, and i'm enjoying watching the progress.

Would you mind if I save a copy of your pic showing the rear chassis of your CMP? The previous owner of the Ford I am restoring 'lost' the rear chassis cross-member. I need to get another fabricated by a local engineering firm (who also do my sandblasting of larger parts) and your photo may help. I still don't understand HOW the part got lost.

Hope the back is coming along OK. It amazes me that it's often the really simple things that cause the 'last straw' scenario.

I plan to put a spare-wheel carrier & box on mine also. Just be sure you don't have the same sinking feeling I got when I first tried to fit a tyre into the carrier & found it was set up for 16in size wheel!!!!! It's farily simple to modify for 20in though.

I look forward to seeing the work progress.

P.S: What the hell are those clutch assemblies from??? They don't look anything like the one on my flathead engine.
