wow, what a job mate - beautiful! Must've been a good moment when she roared (or spluttered?) into life... Looks amazing in the paint and chrome. Any chance of being at Dubbo?

So it's set up more like an 1840 now with the air and the 160. Do you know what rear axle is in it? Although even the air I don't think would have been 1840 with the treadle valve, they originally only had the airpack booster and original juice pedal AFAIK. I could scan you a diagram from the C line service manual but it only covers the original set up obviously. Maybe you need one from an ACCO?

Urchy - I too have the full brother to yours and mustang's trucks with the same plate. I'll see if mine has the date row, I think it might. Same colour and listed wheelbase but never measured it. Got a very short tray so might have been a tipper but no controls. Could have been a PM but not set up for trailers...

Do either of you have the other plate with the build spec etc.? It seems like the earlier (pre D line) often don't.

EDIT here's mine and it measure 171". Obviously Mustang's has been shortened. Mine's meant to be 1969 but I haven't seen anything concrete to tell me that

Congrats 67Mustang

Not long to go before the C Line will be on the open road. You have spent the last 4 years doing some great work.

Wedgetail84, I think you commented on the first images I posted with the one I have to see if it was rescurectable (a while ago, no progress to date unfortunately). These are the other tags. Hope you don't mind me posting them in here Mustang.

All good Urchy87

Wont get to Dubbo this year but keen to get around after xmas and do some events. Seat and steering wheel still a few weeks away, in the mean time will get a lot of little odd and ends done.

Need to look at new Tacho, will go Electric to run off the Alternator, grill still at paintshop, may need to get injector pump done as the engine doesnt come down quick enough after a few revs, some scroll work on cab also then some rego.

It all takes time, cheers

nice work 67mustang .. before you tackle the injector pump, make sure the fuel system is completely free of air...she may need bleeding out. this is a big reason that they'll flare after backing off...just a thought
