Ford Blitz Restoration/Rebuild

Tony,

I don't mind the extra chassis repair work. It's half done now, and will be finished next weekend, as always, weather permitting.

The patches had to come off, or I wouldn't have been able to fit the pintle system correctly. The added plates on outside of the rails would have resulted in pintle attachment brackets sitting too far apart, and I think the spring bit would have been able to slop from side to side.

The only real handicap this remedy has inflicted is the cost of the cutting & grinding discs. And even thats just a tener!
