jerry Posted July 14, 2012 Author Share Posted July 14, 2012 Hello folks, there have been a few dramas recently, but I'm bac to work on the K2. Would anyone know of details for the rear floor, I need to know the width of the floorboards. I have the inspection hatch in reasonable condition and some lengths of hardwood, but I need to know what dimensions to machine it? I'm also in need of a nsf wing and a radiiator if anyone can help?

jerry Posted July 15, 2012 Author Share Posted July 15, 2012 Here is the text that I'd wanted to include but having a few tec issues! The previous pictures show the dashboard, windscreen panel and wooden cab bulkhead all now atached and shown on the chassis a few posts ago. I will try and upload more but this is playing serious games with me! Still need leads on a radiator and an osf wing in any condition?

jerry Posted July 15, 2012 Author Share Posted July 15, 2012 A few pictures of the dashboard, the lower picture shows the original damaged item with the donor dash at the bottom. Simply a case of cutting aligning, making sure the mounting holes still aligned and welding the two together. A qhick skim of filler and back to new again.....

Bowser1107 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I know this is old but I really hope you continued, at what ever pace. I too remembered seeing those K2's at Scambleby in Lincolnshire and in fact I had one removed to the former RAF station at Hemswell but I dont know what happened to it after I left there ???? Anyhow, anybody got any news of this particular resto ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
