Wednesday the 15th Feb a cool start but the sun came out and warmed it up nicely.

I got on with the AA box numbers sanding and painting them ready for fitting after drilling the mounting holes.

 A decision was made on the colour scheme as the AA had various combinations black letters on yellow, yellow letters on black, black on white and white on black some with a border in black, white or yellow

After one coat of the yellow which does not cover very well

A couple of coats later and some applied heat meant they could be bolted on so the exterior is now finished.

A vast improvement from the first visit to collect it

Just need a final site position for it then the interior can be trimmed including a phone, oil lamp on a pulley from the roof so late night breakdowns has light and some warmth and all the information and artefacts for the motorist in need.

Greg has been busy in Boxford laying the floor which then fouled one door when it was pushed open over 90 degrees so some height tweaks were required but once clear the fixing down was completed it then took a long time fitting the screws even with a power driver as there are a few hundred.

in process

Greg had a rescue from a rubbish skip that will be a future project a coffee machine from the 1920's in use until the 1950;s

outside the workshop awaiting attention it will never work as the boiler is missing but bolted to a counter it should be an object of interest
