Humber FV1600 - ARN 105-819 - Restoration moves forward.

[Dave Mills]

Some more pics of progress to date.

Holidays now finished so back to work and the Humber takes a back seat for a while. Will have to satisfy myself with fitting it into the weekends. The rims are all bead blasted and primed awaiting top coat.

Next steps will be to finish the rims and give the old girl some new rubber, refit the front diff and front drive and suspension stations, refit the motor and transmission, then prepare the chassis to accept the cab.

The cab is stilling waiting to be repaired, am not to concerned as no room in yard or workshop (3 x champs, 3 x trailers, 2 humber trucks) to have it at home so my plan is to have the chassis finished and once the cab is finished i can then lift the cab onto the chassis. I hope it works out this way, fingers crossed.

1 - Chassis now completed, cleaned primed and painted.
2 - NOS fuel filter and overhauled mastercylinder, wiring looms completed and fitted.
3 - New brake and fuel lines manufactured and fitted. NOS brake servo fitted and plumbed up.
4 - Steering overhauled, cleaned, painted and refitted
5 - Front diff assembly overhauled cleaned and painted waiting to be refitted.
