Heads Up: CMPs for sale in Canada

[Grant Bowker]

but I would like to check several details of the PO's (not Petty Officer, previous owner) work. Such things as CV joints, did the axles get cleaned inside after sandblasting and before reassembly, state of the brakes and lines, remove the attempted conversion to LHD power steering and install RHD steering, get master cylinder in place so the lines can be filled and checked for leaks.

I won't be able to follow your sage advice to "take lots of pictures before you take it apart" since the PO did much disassembly and a fair bit of reassembly. As you saw, in some ways it resembles a 1:1 model kit with (almost) all the pieces there, but no instructions included. You know, "some assembly required".
