Default 1943 Morris Commercial C8 4x4 GS project

Hello all,

In January of this year i've bought a Morris Commercial C8 GS which currently is undergoing a partially restoration.
Main work involves brake system, fuel system and complete electrics.
After this is done the truck will be officially imported from Belgium to the Netherlands so it has a numberplate and can drive on the road.

After this the truck will be cosmeticly restored, get it in the right colour and looks like a British wartime truck again.

At this moment a lot of work is allready done, the radiator has a new bespoke core and electrics are nearly done.
All necessary parts for the brakes such as caps are found and bought at War and Peace this year. So this will be the next work.

Some pictures:









I will try to update on a regular basis, but as a father of a almost 6 months old son and a busy job this is always challenging.

Rgds.

Sjoerd
