Evening all.... Today was the first day to have a good look over the latest stage of madness in my life, sometimes it's just a case of being in the right place at the right time.
I had been toying between the idea of building a rat rod, or maybe a pre war restoration, when this came along..
So today I have been having a very good look around it, my intention is to get it mechanically bang on, ideally make the brakes work more effectively and rebuild the motor/box/ axle.. whatever is needed ( Any advice on worthwhile upgrades most willingly accepted ! )
The bodywork and trim will be left as is, although the bonnet and panels need livening up a little, although the "tractor" look is starting to grow on me... I believe that she is 1929 and had sat in a dry workshop for forty years after being stripped down for restoration.
