Hi thanks FFrman still having troubles it keeps saying photo too large

[Phoenix]

my preference is for people to use external picture hosting like photobucket (which is what I use, and is free).  It minimises the space the forum takes up as well.

Hi everyone thanks got a photobucket account now. Thats the way I'll do it, so every time that I have done some work to wksp l/r I'll past the link than you can look at them that way.

Hi everyone have the wksp stripped down now just the motors and gear box to remove of the old chssis. Now time to work on the donor chassis. On 113 841 found somthing interesting a bullet dent behind the rear driver side wheel. When the fuel tanks came of for a closer inspection-113 773 are not salvable big rust holes and will need to buy new ones and 113 841 fuel are in good condition

Hi everyone the 113 773 donor chassis rear cross member has to be replaced as it was destroyed by a fire and civilian modification. So have had a look around our old chassis and found a new rear cross member of an old FFR L/R. As this can’t be used anymore because when dad bought this L/R the chassis had already been modified to fit a auto box and a ford motor to be put in.

Hi, is it a series 3 cross member you are putting on?

Looks like you are taking the resto very professionally, enjoying the thread, keep going

[Anthony Egretz]

Hi FFRMAN yes that is a s3 cross member as 113 773 donor chassis is also S3.

Had to put both of the wksp on hold lately due to getting the everyday car on the road again. Went out with the light horse over the weekend that just came we went to the Biloela rally. Dad and I look at one store that was selling old tools and there 3 vices for sale. So dad look at one vice a record 74 vice and we ask the man how much he said $40.We bought it for the 113 773. The vice is a very, very hard to source item being England made. One vice down 2 more to find.

Hi everyone getting back on the two wksp slowly but have lost count on how many marking are found on 113 773. I must be a pro at finding them by now. I was rubbing back the doors on 113 773 nothing on the outside but turned the driver door over and seen small spec of raeme colours’ so I rubbed it back and found another raeme corps badge painted on the wksp.
