After a far too long hiatus this project is again underway. First job today (after building and planting out the vegie garden) was to rid the carport of the interloping Suzuki Vitara (and listed it on ebay in case anyone is looking for one), and move the FGT into position for some preparatory work to start before moving it to Euan's workshop where the rear body will be attached.
As far as can be ascertained these FGTs were built in 1942, so it being her 70th birthday it is only fit and proper to give her some attention.
One of the first jobs will be to unseize the reactionary linkage for the brakes. I did have the whole thing working beautifully with a new booster, but when the brakes are applied the pedal stays determinedly in the down position and having just disconnected the booster it appears the reactionary linkage has frozen. I resleeved the master and wheel cylinders some time ago.
She's much happier here out of the weather!
