 October 12th

After missing a week I got back onto the scammel and refitted the rear lights all did not go as planned as one bulb holder was longer than the rest and the mounts had been tweaked to suit it. 

But we have gone from this


To this


Then finished off the chassis and did the wheels after a cab clean it looks a lot better


Greg has been busy making architrave and replacing the rotten wood around windows on the buildings it was then time to attack the platform scales for a disassembly coat the mechanism with some used engine oil and a repaint but a light shower interfered with the painting. Greg has photos to add for these tasks as I forgot as normal.

We need a video of the scammel in action now it drives and everything works.
