I've made some now.
584CCX for the Austin Seven Ruby, HHE193 for the Austin A35, and
JWA847 for the Ford 100E Pop.
I've still not rebuilt the series 2 so I've not made one for
that. If anyone on here owns an 88 registered in any of the
areas mentioned I might use your number. :)

I then, repainted it, made a canvas out of newspaper, chopped
out the tailgate and made a PTO-driven Lincoln arc welder set to
go in the back.

My wife says " That looks like a little toy..."
Perceptive.

Is that a Series III dash? Looking at those hinges, you're
obviously not "one of the crowd" either.
The vehicle is clearly a ringer; just you wait until a certain
series-specific-club hears about this...!

Believe it or not I made a proper series 2 dash. I even made up
the levers with appropriate red and yellow tops. Fuck knows why
cos you can only see them if you peer into the cab closely and
and the right angle.
I hadn't noticed the sills or the hinges. :banghead Well, I had
noticed the hinges but forgot about them when it became obvious
that it was way too much hassle making the stand proud type.
Anyway, the hinges stand proud club probably have them
copyrighted and patented n that.
I always thought that a good slogan for Kingy's mob would be "If
your hinges sit flat you're a bit of a twat". :smilewide:
