At last here are some photos NZ LP hull

[Lew Skelton]

Hi all, well its taken me a while to get onto the rebuild, damm work getting in the way of garage time. first pictures are the front of the hull as it was when I got it, track guards full of holes, floor poked, bottom rusted out of the division plate and a large hole cut out of the gunners side wall ( I think to let the sheep dogs in). Front armour all still there so out with the plasma cutter/grinder to remove the bits that needed cutting out and in with reclamed plate from another hull that was too far gone. Ive got to thank all the local Manawatu enthuasists who have assisted so far, Colin for the measurments when doing the bottom of the division plate and David Ellery for the welding tips. Awesome resource this forum, many thanks allready.
