I am always amazed and astounded by those who are able to tackle rest projects of this magnitude and bring back such rare big beasts from the brink of extinction..

Well done... you have my utmost admiration..and awe!!!

Been awhile since last update.
Im still working away, detailing is taking alot of time. Thanks to Rob on this forum I got another pintle/cradle for another deact mg I got from another forum, a 1919. I installed the front sprockets and have the 3 main wiring harness's installed. Will also start plumbing for fuel. I hope to fire the engine in the coming weeks, and in a month or so install tracks

Fabulous work !!!

[Andrew]

Things have been kinda slow, lost heat in the shop for 2 weeks and the lil stuff takes alot of time

I got 3 gun sockets so had to mount them, weld in supports etc. Also I decided to install roof bows so I also had to weld in the mounts for that


test fit of the 1919 out back



this week I hope to get the rear inside final paint done so I can start on seats etc. All my wiring is starting to come along, got almost all the dash parts I need to assemble.

[Andrew]

So im still putting along, dash is almost finished, dash plaques look funny as i didn't pull the cover film off


Almost ready to install a track, and finally after many years in storage, and the last time since it was run (1961) the engine roared to life
