Excellent job Lew. Your hull looks to be almost rust free. Keep up the good work.

done a little more this week
Iv'e blasted and painted the wheels and suspension, ready for re assembly waiting on new seals, blasted the hull this morning, uncovered the hull assembly number as well as the NZ number with a bit of carefull dusting with the blaster also uncovered another number below the NZ number photographed the lot as well as some measuring of the font size so that I can replicate them.
Colour matched the paint with some from under the drivers seat, painting first thing Monday.

Almost there....
No photos tonight but it's getting there, all wheels back on rebuilt suspension 20 repacked wheel bearings later, had to weld the rear bogie as the housing had broken in half, got a repo air scoop made and it is spot on but needed a little custom fitting. Made the school boy error and fitted the center boogies to the wrong side, oops, brakes next then fitting the engine and gearbox, slowly coming together.
