Default Daimler Ferret inspection plates

We will be having a number of these made locally.

If anyone else wants some please speak up, we will obviously save the CAD file for later on if there are any late comers.

The total compliment for a vehicle is 5.

No idea on price as yet.

Regards

Robin

I dropped by my neighbour's place this afternoon and he just happened to have a gap in his afternoon and quickly produced four access plates for me.

he made the basic plate and the small tab that takes the chain, I will clean these up and weld them together.

Robin,
Nice work.

But how's the oil going to drain out if you cover all those holes?

Preventing the oil leaks in the first place Malcolm, the key.
