Not sure how this shot will look on here. It is the flat file of the 360 VR I did in the engine bay right after we removed the engine and before we started to clean it up.

Sean; I have an instrument panel face reserved for your project. It looks like you will need the base, or front half, also. Plus all the clips, mounts, resistor, lights, gauges, breakers, switches. Interestingly, all those parts are are still being produced. I could build you one when the time comes. Jesse.

Sean; I found a picture of a Sexton outfitted with the fording kit. It has a high box on top of the fighting compartment, with the stakes fitting into three square sockets identical in size and placement to the ones on your vehicle. I will send you a picture when I get home. I am out of state looking at a Sherman to restore. Jesse.

Hey Jesse!
That sounds Great! I asked Santa for one, but I guess I had been too naughty this year.
Phil picked up the engine today so that is in the works as well!
I'll be posting more images soon!

Interesting find recently: The hull # 130 on the rear, seems to have the '3' double stamped on top of itself. Never thought much of it. The other day however, I noticed that '130' was also stamped the top edge of the left engine door. Perhaps the person stamping realized he messed up and re-stamped it on the door?

Sean; I talked to Phil today. He was driving back from your place with the engines. The gun on my Sexton is stamped in at least 6 places with the vehicle serial number. The stamps on the front and back hull are also double stamped on mine. Jesse.

Hello Jesse,

You posted that you can still get new gauges etc and distribution blocks for the sexton dash? Can you get the amp gauge and the gearbox temp gauge?

regards
