wheels.
Ben, If these wheels near you turn out to be usesable, then i might have some early dated wheels to pass on, so you looking for early british wheels dated 1938 to 1939?, what about 1940?, I will check what I have on Tuesday morning.

New LH side
Steady progress on the Scout. Some little jobs being blasted and painted but the new LH side armour has gone on. I had this cut from 8mm originally but the part that came out was about 7.5mm and the new part left a forward facing step I wasn't happy with, I took it into town and had the whole surface ground down by 0.5mm so the side is flush with the front part. The fit is now perfect and I'm much happier.
All the armour is now on and ready for riveting. I've put the engine cover back in too. during the last 70 years it has held up pretty well but about an inch was removed from the front section. I can only assume this made getting it out a little easier for the farmer that wanted the engine. I've been jigging it back into place trying to get all the sections straight and welding in the missing inch. You need arms like an octopus but its going back OK, constantly making sure its straight. Ben
