Thanks for the photos!

Yes, not looking too good here... hopefully they'll know how to put it back together.  :-)

Every old card I’ve ever done restoration work on looked much worse than that Jimbo!

That’s down to the British weather though - if the jeep had been in a UK scrapyard for that long it would have been no more than a heap of the aluminium parts lying on top of a pile of rust powder by now!

That's great!  Thanks for the update!

Do you know if the next part is going to be harder or easier than this was?
