55' sheep carrier

Post by chuck85 »

Just some pics on where i'm up to, not as much as i would have liked to have done by now but thats life i guess, pretty much removed everything besides doors and gearbox ect. to my surprise the horn still works and so does the windscreen wiper motor, i'll post more pics once i get the kombi up to where i'm living now the kombi is about 3 hours away at the moment. looks like i have lost some photos somewhere on my pc. once i find them ill post more pics[/url]

Looks like the front end is getting a bit of love. Nice to see it being saved

Wish I could do what Chuck is going to but to quote Harry Callahan "A man's got to know his limitations...." :wink:

It's great to see this one getting along.
I knew when to say "Uncle" and yield to a better man.
I'm sure you'll do it well.
I was talking to Mike, the farmer I bought it from, during the hols and he asked about it.
I assured him it was in good hands and he's interested to see it when it's done.
Cheers & God Bless
