Hi all,
I picked up my 2b aout 7 years ago from an old chap in skipton who had used it for the last 20 years as his buisness selling amry surplus stock at shows. The first year of ownership was spent rebuilding the bulk head and chassis repairs. It then spent 6 years in a 40ft container without any work due to other commitments taking priority. After that period in there i sold it to a friend and when i came to dragging it out of its 6 year stint laid up i couldnt part with it. So to sum it up after asking for it back from my fridnd iv been productively working on it when i can to hopefully get to some shows this summer. It just needs the pick up painting and wireing finishing off.
Its got a 6247 pekins mated to a lt77 and a tipper back conversion.
Im just after a canvas for it but a new one is expensive but there arnt any seconds about.
I have a shed load of build pics that need to go through and will upload when its finished. But heres a few.
