Hi All, Finally a suitable Ash tree was located and then chopped down, sawn up and the body is now on... I think she looks better, now ready for a convoy up to Holt ....

Update, after a battle with the DVLA frankie as I called her is now on the Road, fixed a few silly oil leaks and resealed all the manifolds and removed a broken stud on the exhaust, the winch cable is finally back on and working, a good grease up and oil and filter change, readjusted the brakes, just have to spray the bumperettes white on the back and stencil on the Reg No. need to now select an Ash tree to cut down to re mount the body on the back, and kick panels inside the Cab and she will be there... M:-)

Hi All, I collected this yesterday, I think a running restoration... I said no more after the Chev but its cute with a nice history, apparently was in a John Lennon film among others. 1942 Ford fitted with a Ford 4D diesel have I lost the plot ? Brakes needs doing, front tires blown out. The seller had three days to move it so I did a spur of the moment exchange.
