Humber FV1611(A)

[FV1611A]

I have recently joined the forum, albeit do frequent the hmvf here in old Blighty.

Thought that I would post some pics of the Pig I have aquired and will be starting restoration on soon. That is once I have the Lightweight and Rover 8 a bit more advanced. However the PIG may sneek in front

Please follow the thread http://hmvf.co.uk/forumvb/showthread...er-Pig-Origins

The damage is essentially external and concentrated around the wings and lockers etc. It would be great to share other members experiences on the wing/ locker rebuilds. In particular if any drawings exist. I intend to survey mine and then produce some fabrication drawings in AutoCAD for replication etc.
