Thanks Hanno, always appreciate your knowledge and help.
Have not done a lot but am trying to 'stay the course'. Radiator has been fitted. Top pipes made, hose cut and fitted up.

Poor thing is very rough. I am going to get it sandblasted and see what is left.
It has had the obligatory farmer modification of cutting the wheel arch boxes and reversing them to make more tray room. I was able to cut them off fairly easily in the end with the angle grinder. I had an incredible bit of luck. The rod that hinges the tailgate to the body tapped out and is reusable. Frame underneath is good but I am worried about how many holes will in the floor once the rust is gone.

Don't know about you guys... but I love old, over engineered stuff.
These Radiator drain cogs are exactly that. They were a project in themselves. But they cleaned up beautifully and will make draining the radiator a breeze.

Hi Tony,
They look really good and as you say over-engineered. You are lucky too- usually the arms have been broken off the cocks. I have three of them as proof! Cheers

OK ...
So thanks to Victorians who cant stay at home, the loom I have ordered from Vintage Wiring Harness 6 weeks ago is not going to made till god knows when. So I thought I'd have a crack - not original wire but new and safe. I have a couple of NOS loom sections so I copied the one from the battery to hook up the ignition system. Completed that part in a day and bit. Allowing for finding connectors and driving to the shops to buy the stuff you thought you had but didnt.
