...not any more!! After painting, the vehicle is now back together again and looks fantastic! Although not exhaustive, the list of things to be done was large and included:
- New tyres - we've fitted 12.00 x 20 Goodyear G388s which are slightly larger and more modern
- The wheels have been painted
- Carburetter cleaned and rebuilt
- Manifolds cleaned and re-attached, a difficult job as the exhaust manifold is in three pieces and you need an octopus to help hold it and re-attach!!
- Exhaust painted in high temperature black
- The rear body has been re-attached
- The steps have been fitted to the tailboard
- Mudflaps fitted
- Radiator canvas cowel replaced (the last one was missing)
- The new indicators are fitrted together with the complex backing plates
- The headlining has been painted
- New wipers and arms fitted
- Tilt frame painted and fitted
- Flashing amber lights fixed and wired up
- Headlining painted
The pics give you an idea!!
