Yesterday we removed the cab and rear tray (they were only temporarily attached) so we could more easily access the brakes and install the newly reconditioned motor. Today we installed the engine and gearbox in the chassis for the first time. After five years this is a great day for us!! We were hoping to fire it up too, but we ran out of time by late afternoon and called it a day. So the ceremonial start-up will have to wait a little while longer. We still have to attach the starter-motor, generator, carburetor and radiator before we can hear her run. The chassis is mounted temporarily on old narrow tyres until we can source the correct 10.5 x 16 LRDG tyres.
