Default Update?

Tony, what's the latest on this project almost two years on?

I take it there was no transfer to the Adelaide Hills.

Default Dabs on your truck!!

Hi Tony
I see you took the precaution of starting a new thread just in case I claimed shares "dabs" on your find!!! Great great machine and thanks for photos. Next time you are out lovingly going over her could you snap a few shots of the soft top mechanism for me please. Thanks.

Nigel

Default Time capsule

What a great find...

Mike I though you might have acquired that Junee one by now - you didn't give up did you ?

Tony - is there any difference between the cabin on these utilities and the Marmon Herrington gun tractors?
I recently rescued an almost cab with canopy bows and though it was a gun tractor ?

Cheers

Phill

Default 39 1 ton

Tony,

I have a 39 1 ton I have started restoring. Getting near to rolling chassis. Any chance you could post some more detailed photos of the hood arrangement, both inside and around where it fits on the timber over the windscreen and rest of frame. It appears yours is fixed to the cab on three sides at the bottom. Also some close up photos of the rear body hood brackets. I have spec drawings of the hood bows and frame if you are interested. Mike Cecil was kind enough to supply them to me from the AWM so they tell you all you need to know to reproduce a set.
