Ray turned up today and is going to spend a couple of days staying in Bournemouth and 'mucking in '
So by lunchtime we were at this stage ....
Engine and gearbox out and chassis cleaned up ...
By the end of play , the rack was off , stripped and cleaned up .....new parts being fitted tomorrow .
The turrets were off , brake pipes etc all stripped off and then Ray put a coat of paint on the rear section of the chassis ...
tomorrow should see turrets re-fitted opposite each other , further cleaning and painting etc. whilst I tackle patching up the bulkhead ..
