Default C60L restoration

Hi, finally I have got around to posting a thread about my 1943 Chev. I've had it about 3 years and is nearly finished (if that is possible, there always seems something to do, as you all know) I must thank Mark Seirant for all of his help, advice and welding skills in getting the (Moo Cow) on the road and to Max and Euan for thier help. I have included some photos of the truck from the day we picked it up to it's current condition.

An outstanding restoration, Rob! Night & day difference I'd say, and it's truly a pleasure to see it. Good work!

Yes, she's a beautiful thing and is of course featured in the 2007 Year of the Cycle and Staff Car DVD with Jif going for a ride.

Must be even better with the new motor, Rob!
