Greetings Everyone,
I've been monitoring this site/thread for awhile now and have really appreciated the contributions (especially the photos) everyone has made. I feel that it's my duty to add my vehicles to the list of FV1600s still in existance.
I've got three of these interesting old trucks, all nearly complete. My plans are to get one roadworthy asap, and do a full restoration on a second one with the third for parts.
I've done a fair bit of work on the first one. Trans repairs, brakes, interior, controls, etc. I'm making progress.
The photo is the first one I'm working on, only minor rust issues but a few mechanical problems (ie. tracta-joints). I was fortunate that one owner (deceased) had collected a stack of new parts (gaiters, igntion leads, etc.) still in original boxes.
Years of work ahead.
Regards, Jai

Hi Jai
Can you please give us some more details, such as where you are located?
Sounds like you're in Aussie - better watch out, you'll make the Englishmen cry with the rust-free state of your Humbers!
