Hanno and George,
I have looked through some Windsor period pictures over the last few days and all of them show the brackets un-used hanging from the side. So I guess it is save for the museum to reproduce the missing parts and just display them without use.
George, your explanation sounds plausible and I would be really interested in the picture.
Rod,
Yes please. I would be very interested in the contact information for "Ian", although it might allready be too late for the Windsor restoration. I understand the museum crew wants to finish the Windsor in the next few weeks, but I still want to trigger them to keep the possibility open to restore the Windsor to running condition, one day........This would require a Ford V8, steering assy and some track links, at the least...
Thanks for the compliments, Rod. But, I have to say that I am only helping the museum with information and advice; the restoration work is done by their volunteers. I do want to give them a hand with the restoration of the Conger carrier, which is their/our next project.
A pity that you allready left Holland; the Arnhem remembrance is next week!
Alex
