Mike, it was great to meet you at the last OMVA show. I wish I could have stayed a bit longer to chat more. You've got a similar start to what mine was like when I got it. Have fun with it. Sometimes things will go slow or even backwards but keep going and doing each piece really well. In the end it pays off. As I always say, whats another hour or two once you have spent a couple of hundred hours on it.

Wow! Time flies when you're having fun. With the help of an MLU'er we upgraded to a much more complete Mk 1*. We're finished pulling her apart and now the task of rebuilding begins. There's loads of pictures scattered on three iphones and a computer, lots of labels and heavy ziplock baggies. We have some of the front armour (looking for or making more). Phase two begins...

I recently discovered that there's just enough room in the garage to do a 360. Makes things a lot easier. I'll post a few more pics when I upgrade my picture resizing skills.

Hi,
My son helped me set up a decent molasses de-rusting (chooching) tank made from an IBC plastic tote. It's parked in the back yard under a tree that has a very convenient limb for the chain hoist. Forfunately I haven't received any "lingering stench" complaints from the adjoining neighbours. This first batch we're soaking comprises of half of the seized track and a raft of other rusted pieces. I'm very interested in seeing the results. One of the pieces is this 2" angle. It has the Ford stamp but the part number is obscured. Can someone identify it for me? Thanks muchly, Mike

Mike, it is one of the angle irons that a rubber rest mounts on at the top edge of the hull. there is one on the back and one on the right side, each with 3 bolt holes, but different lengths.
