Haha Fernando, this is the first time I have stripped so far. Big job, but will get there.

Froll

Looks good Fernando, that is a big job. What do you carry on a trailer that size?

Welcome Eric.

Yes Thabo, I bought 2 last weekend when I was in Upington. 6 mm with a silver lining on one side. I think they will work quite lekker.

Froll

Well last weekend I did not do anything as we went away. This weekend I got quite a bit done. I worked today, which I dont normally do as it looks like I am not going to be here for the next two weekends. Got a family crisus and will probally be going to Kathu and then George for a week. I finished ...

Chris, even if he wants to clean the chassis with a wire brush and grinder he will have to remove the bin and cab. The wire brushes that fit in grinders are quite good , but still not so easy to clean off all the dirt as the gap between the cab and chassis is not big enough. By doing it this way is ...

Got to fill some of the joints of the roof today. Once they are all finished I will start to under coat and do final filling and shaping. Next weekend we have a wedding in Upington so will not get anything done.Getting there slowly but surely.

Ja Tertius, dit is nie a lekker job nie. As jy gaan laat iemand dit doen, kry verkieslik iemand wat privaat werk doen wat lief is vir die werk. Ek dink van die werkwinkels doen half n job net om die werk klaar te kry en hulle geld te kry, dan sit jy weer met die gemoors in n paar jaar se tyd. Gutter...

Very interesting, thanks for sharing.

Froll

Sorry Nic, I have not yet taken the wiring loom out and will probably not take it right out, but I can see if I can find the wire and follow it for you. It may just take a while but I will see what I can do for you.

Froll

Marius, my dak was nog reg. Dis die gutters wat so sleg geroes was. Ek kon nie nuwe gutters kry nie toe maak ek my eie uit 20 mm square tube uit. Maar ek moes die dak af sny om hulle te vervang. Tertius, ek het al n klomp nuwe woorde geleer van ek begin het. Hennie, dit is die eerste keer dat ek so ...

Got the roof skin on in place today. Stuck the sides with epoxy, waiting for 24 hours to set then I can braze the corners and the window frames. Also modified the firewall to fit the Essex motor. Getting there slowly.

At last I got to do some work again, havent done anything for 2 weeks because of going to town and church bazaar. Got my roof skin in the week. :thumbup: Today I finished the gutters and fitted them. I made them out of 20 mm square tubing as I could not find new ones. Well sometimes one just makes a...

Ons boer met groente en kry peanuts daarvoor en dan die rek moet betaal. Miskien moet jy n paar groente saai.

Froll

Welkom Jan, hoop jy geniet dit hier op die forum.

Looking good.

Froll

Mickey, try and spray a bit of Q20 or something into the center bearing, next to the rubber and drive it again. Sometimes they get dry and make a noise, if the noisy is gone then you will know that it is the center bearing. You will have to replace it as this spray does not last long. I check them t...

Baie mooi pics Andre, dankie dat jy hulle gedeel het met ons. Ek is so lus om veld toe te ry, maar moet wag tot die trok klaar kom.

Froll

Got some more done today. Cut out and welded in on the driver side. Will fit the gutters next, and then the roof skin. Hopefully will get the roof before the end of the month.

I have been told that I am not going to work in my garage this weekend

Welcome Colin, hope you enjoy it here on the forum.

Yes Chris, it is the old Ford Essex 3 liter V6. Just the plain points, plugs and condensor. The motor was running in a Hilux that was cut up due to rust. It was a good runner, I am going to fit a new oil and water pump and maybe rings and bearings. Will open it up and see. I know it was a good runne...

Froll

Looking very good, I like the idea of securing the SP.

Froll

Dont all give negative comments at once. I have wanted to use one of these motors for a long time and have now decided to do it. I need something stronger for towing a caravan. I dont want a Lexus as it is to strong. I dont go mad in the veld, do more overlanding than 4x4 . I need something reliable...

Froll

Congrats Andre, car is looking awesome. Should get some good clips from the cam.

Froll
