I seem to take pity on rusty heaps! This one will be/is on the very very back burner. As I would like to get Mr Weasel as road ready and right as I can before I start anything else. A short story with this one I saw it a while ago on a fb group. Lots of photos of it in pieces a chap just expressing he had one. On the off chance I said if you happen to want to move it on I maybe interested... Famous last words, later that evening the deal was done and transport arranged. It seeme the chap may have been a bit of a Jowett hoarder as other bits of Jowetts are also in the pile of rusty gold!
This is a project far beyond anything I've tried before. I've been quite good a stripping them down and rebuilding from the ground up however this one is already on the ground and a full size air fix kit! (The air holding most of it together!) Though everything appears to be there as a pattern to be remade and copied.
And
And not forgetting what it should look like...! Though it would appear the commercial brochure had not been updated to reflect later styling a rounded radiator front, windscreen and flowing wings.
