  1. Believe the gearbox is from some French truck but does fit the ford flathead! I leave all the technical stuff to chris! Lol

    thanks for the offer rick!

  2. Hi rick

    tried to join it but they are not taking any new members?

    This is the carrier chris is restoring for me! I know he has been asking you about stuff!

    Had a chat with simon at stoneleigh on Sunday and I know he has sorted some bits out too!

  4. More progress! Had to purchase another engine so had it rebuilt! Had the gear box rebuilt too! Radiator was pressure tested and is fine so lots of scrubbing down and it was found that the gunk has preserved the chassis! Paint added! Just waiting for new fuel tank and fenders and shouldn't be too far off! Unfortunately I'm going to have to put her up for sale as I've just bought a been carrier that need restoring so will need the money to put in to that! Sad I know but leading to a happy ending and I know who ever buys her with have some great times!

  5. The engine has seized up but head is off and one of the cylinders is full of water!

    need a new gasket set, ammeter, radiator needs a new core, ignition/light switch, carb has siezed so not sure if it can be fixed? Just missed out on one on eBay for £25! :-( some of the tin wear needs re fabricating and a new tyre! Not sure if anything else needs sorting yet?

    I bought it to keep and use at shows but then I just acquired a mk1 universal carrier that needs restoration so this may have to be sold to fund that?

  6. hi Adrian

    many thanks for the information

    I'm hoping to take delivery next week and start the work asap!

    could you send me some pictures of the switches and dials and also any of the driving compartment so I have a reference to go by!

    this would be a great hell and much appreciated

    many thanks
