Hi

Well, I bought a E83W rolling Chassis today, no engine but a few good bits, a good steering box, brakes, shocks etc. One headlamp, that I can repair, pair of bonnets, and some dash clocks.

Got to make space for it, then it can be delivered!

I think this will be split for spares, and to aid storage!

Cheers

Dave

Hi

Started stripping the Chassis today, got most of the brake linkaged off, bar one braket, 4 shocks, had to cut two of the arms. Then a few other brackets. Going to try and finish stripping it tomorow, may try to remove the axles, wheels, king pins etc, then will pop the chassis on ebay, if no takers, it will have to be scrapped, there is no weight in the chassis, so the value at the yard will be £10 -£30 so if anyone can beet that and make use of it, they are welcome. It has a chassis number, and is pretty good, it is a little moth eaten, and has rusted through on one side, been repaired in the past, but needs welding, and a few out riggers. A day with a mig welder, and I could have it solid.

Cheers

Dave
