Car, Heavy Utility, 4x2 (Ford F8)

As most people know the 13" rims and tires for the 8cwt are hard to find. The tires that are available tend to be agricultural tire and not road legal. My issue is the rims on my truck have had the "Farmer" modification where the rims have been cut and butchered into 16" rims.
On previous thread http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...d.php?p=212345 Super Dave mentioned mating the 13" rims with standard 15" trailer rims, so far everything is lining up making a much stronger and safer rim then what I have now.

I've been tinkering away and have almost got my F8 sitting on new rubber, I have just one more rim to weld together. Once she is able to roll I will get a few more pictures of it inside and out

Had a lovely sunny day and decide it was a good idea to pull the old girl out for a few photos and tinkering. Roof will be cut at damaged section and stored until needed

1. outside for the before pictures
2. Damage from the prairie winds
3. Test fit the hood from Bob Carrie
4. Roof off, my girlfriends son Ethan is my helper this weekend
5. Stash of parts that I brought home from Ontario

I should have thought of this the first time I saw the thread. I don't have a clue who to ask for wartime Mulliner RAF bus drawings, but I know someone who does ...

The VK62B Dodge belonging to Rick Jones had a wartime Mulliner body, and as you can see here;

... he got a copy of the body drawings from somewhere. Find Ricks e-mail - he is the admin of that site, and ask him where he got the body drawings maybe?
