wayne Rollinson Posted September 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 I got my milling machine and welder home today so ready to get cracking properly now. Rob it took a while to tidy the barn it was a right mess but needed a good area to do the whole project and not keep taking things back and forth to work, just painting will be done at work the rest i can now do here, regards wayne.

wayne Rollinson Posted September 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 I collect all my gearbox parts saturday and nearly gathered all the panels i need to do the tub so things are going to move along nicely, 2 sheets of mild steel came in to do the alteration on the front tub and today at work two large rollers came in to remove the sprockets and change bearings so after a short while i came up with this lol, that's me sorted for pressing new bearings and polybushes .

wayne Rollinson Posted October 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2018 Now my panels and parts are here I made a start on removing all the rot, when I got the outer sill off it had been replaced badly, part of the old sill left in but explained why the door gap at this side was non existent. nothing had been fitted correctly but once I get everything out including the floor, lower A post I can fit it up on chassis and spend time getting the correct alignment, it felt good to get started on the tub, The curved panels at the front and rear where saved I used a wire wheel to go over the edges to find the spot welds and then drilled them out, this is easy to find them using the wheel it leaves the indents full of paint. after cutting out the sill i saw how weak the tub is so I plan on cutting the bulkhead out after everything is set so i dont weaken it too much and it all folds on me.
