Default All done re reading all the posts.....

Fanastic.....just plain fantastic!!!

There are a few sources for sand colored paint from the USA that I will have to look into.....or have something blended locally...... no one can tell it's the wrong color.... but that it further down the road....

Here are a few quickies..... did you use the molasses on the inside of the tank as well???? repro tanks are available but as you say we all work on a budget.
....and did you apply a sealer inside the tank???

did you ever established if the steering wheel box was originally the same as a CMP.....?

What were the inaccuracies of the front fenders...... where they join the steping boards???

Might have to invest in an English wheel.... I have 3 cabs to choose from hoping that I can cannibalize enough parts.....

Are you using a stock rear axle from a 4x4 CMP?? or from a C15 4x2??

If only Spring can get here....

Not sure if I should do a 42 LRDG or 40 "CAIRO" early model....... I may have enough parts for both but short one engine..... and 40 front fenders.

My first hurdle is ......will I live long enough...

Cheers

Cheers
