Default Thanks guys

Hi folks
Thanks for your input. I can make the tool ,I'm an engineer so not a problem. What I'm finding is that apart from the rotten chassis that is now solid again a lot of the parts like these joints / on a modern car I would replace just as a matter of course,on this I clean them up and re- grease and good to go . They did get some things very good . Some not so much the shelf leaving thing ? Well that's coming off lol .
It's coming along slowly. And as some of you already know this is going to have a 1950 A40 Devon pick up cab on it built as a hot rod but with a Bristol chassis and running gear . I am staying at close as possible to original on the run gear so it's just a coach built as the ewere in affect. Thanks for your time . If you need anything machining as one of let me know . Cheers Andy
