Here is a pic of the hooks on C8AX #891
They have a hinged drop down section that locks them in place. Other trucks I've seen have a curved pin like the toolbox lockers. |

The Hand Throttle mystery is over! Have included two pictures for anyone who needs to know. Works for me.
The only part I am missing now is the radiator protector bar assembly for the Chev. Anyone got a plan for this? I understand the Fords were spring steel but the Chevs flat bar? If this is right I will make one myself, but if spring steel will get a spring shop to knock two up. |

Have finished the tray and got it in shed ready for the 'green dream'. The 4x2 on their tail gate now is only their as a brace. Only all the tray is painted the 4.5x2 can go on then.

Have got the Kiwi Box sitting on the chassis today. Tray was a lot taller than what I thought. Will leave the floorboards until I have finished the wiring. Am going to have to blow another coat of paint on the cab section as it’s a touch darker than the other paint. Ordered five tins mixed all at once to start, so either it goes darker over time or one was a bit ‘different’ maybe? May even leave it, suspose the CKD kits were all mixed and matched when they first left Canada the NZ on the boat.
