Some old photos from 14 years or more ago when we started to weld the armoured windscreen into place. The rear armour was also taking shape.

This is what we brought home taken from the front showing the Australian ARN. 123980.

The mounting bracket for the steering column helped to locate the exact position of the front armour.

The column mount bolts to both the hull and the 1 inch + ¼ thick armoured ‘windscreen’ panel. This was to help locate that windscreen panel in its correct place when we welded it back on.

Now back to stripping the hull 2013. The steering column was again removed from the hull and put aside for later work. The steering wheel was extremely hard to turn and the column had to be completely disassembled and new bushes fitted.
