I haven't updated for a while, the project has been parked while parts have been sourced and normal day to day things took place.
Working on the rear axle at the moment, rear of the chassis will start going back together next week if I can borrow a large enough trailer to bring it home from the farm.    This photo clearly shows the weaker early design of rear axle used up to 1943.

Finally its going back together.
I've got to remake the engine floor and hopefully repair the gearbox floor, both 1.5mm steel. I imagine originally 1/16th.   Gearbox floor Right side is from the 44 Ford range target, left is from an 42 MB Wild.  Engine floor Left is 44 Ford, right is 42 MB Wild...there is nothing in the middle, I presume to let the oil leaks drain out

It sure is Ben, to have it just a few metres from the house makes such a difference, I've got more done in the past couple of weeks than in the last 18 months. It also means that the farm rent can now go into the carrier fund! The price of imperial fasteners always shocks me.
