Default Progress Update

Thought I'd better give you all an update to what we have been up to with our stuff.

Benn fitting a diff under the Cab 11 30 cwt and steering box from a Cab 12 so it can be moved about, looking better with the diff. Got the engine turning but it won't turn right over yet.

The Jeep is getting closer to club plates, needs the hand brake connecting up and other minor adjustments.

Aaron's chev broke down the other day when he went to show off to his mates, serves him right after buggering up my Ford.


The carrier still goes been adjusting the steering box and brakes to make it turn better, still looking for a few bits.

I'm in the process of buying a new toy for our collection , its a Ford

Was Aaron trying to do burnouts in his C15A?
What did he do to your Ford?

*sigh* the youth of today...:

I hope he learnt his lesson that not all CMPs are created equal!
I bet that's not the first time the positive earth mistake has been made on a CMP!

He wouldn't have had residual water in his tanks?
