Progress up to 30-7-2010.

Further dramatic progress on this very rare tipper truck.


     30/7/2010
Cab floor being cut and fixed in place.
New chassis/load area support timbers.
Good view of the new fabricated inner wings.
All new metal, yes that's the end of the throttle pedal shaft.
Left hand side view of cab floor.
Wow, this is a whole new, freshly fabricated front end.
View of the offside inner wing, with shock absorber and brake shaft mounting brackets clearly visible.
The rear chassis rail has been replaced. (21-7-2010)
Trial fit of side panels and front engine cover.
The overhauled engine is now sitting in the chassis.
The seat! well wooden base/box, having a trial fit.
Another view of the engine.
Replaced central cross member.
Another view of the engine refitted to the chassis.
It's come a long way, still a little bit more to do, before the MOT.
