Default C15 restoration in the UK

John Corden and James Gosling have embarked on a C15 restoration project. You can follow their progress on HMVF:

Restoration of Dismantled C15:
James Gosling and I have bought a dismantled C15 truck, it was dismantled 30 years ago and put into storage by three brothers in Kent.
A recent change in their circumstances resulted in the loss of its storage and it being placed on MILWEB.
As we have worked on and rebuilt several Canadian vehicles, we decided to try and save the old Chev. It's quite a risk buying boxes of parts but we could see that the parts had been carefully stored, also both have a stock of spares and took the plunge. Time will tell what has been lost over the years......
Our plan is to completely rebuild it over future months. I aim to keep a blog on HMVF to record the process.
Here are some photos of some of the C15 parts in "kit form".
