Thanks guys, its coming along unfortunatley Dave I haven't many photos of making bits and bobs and actualy I'm a bit further on that the video's while I was waiting for parts to be delivered I spent my cleaning rubbing down priming and re-painting to the point that all the plate work is painted ready for re-assembly. So today I thought I'd do a trail fit.

As I said a trail fit with barely any fixings holding it together, encouraging things was all the plate work holes lined up perfectly so nothing out of alignment since the strip down. Still plenty to be done with rework on all the plumbing, drain cocks, brakes, ash pan needs some work. That's tomorrow

That's just looking great.
There must be a great feeling of satisfaction doing a restoration.
