Reference the thing about taxing her. Once Woolfy has had her MOTed, with a pass I hope, then as long as she is insured, which she is, then I can tax her
on line and I can drive her home without having the tax disc on her, according to the DVLA.
Yes Tim but I thought that I would have to tax her at a post office but wasn't sure what the procedure was when a vehicle has been off the road so long. Normally I get a reminder and use that,but anyway it's good to know that once she's ready for rolling I can pick her up as I would think like everyone on here, I get itchy feet and can't wait to get behind the wheel of her.

Talking about the phone, my first mobile phone was the size of half a brick, maybe even a full brick but then they started to get smaller and smaller and now they're getting bigger and bigger again.

Hi to the crew, what I am doing is putting the pictures on as Woolfy sends them to me and it is building up to the great crescendo.Just let me know if you think I should stop putting them on till it's finished, your wish is my command.:I:I

Because I was let down before, I asked Woolfy to keep me informed by sending loads of pictures, which fair play to the man he has done and keeps on doing and knowing that members like to see pictures on here I have just been sticking them on whatever the picture is.[:X]

This is proper Commer porn, so just keep them coming It really is stunning and a joy to see the photos. There is of course something called focus and light balance, but let's not get too picky
Where did you get hold of these immaculate quarterlight gaskets though, I wonder ??!!

Hi Jostein, the photographs were taken using a mobile phone so obviously the quality isn't as good as if a camera was used.
As for the work and all the parts you will have to contact Woolfy, who is doing the restoration, and I feel sure that he will give you all the information that you need. I think you will agree that he's doing an excellent job and I don't think it will be too long before she's finished[8D][:X]

Woolfy is a far better restorer than a photographer, is my conclusion after some 5 1/2 years on this forum
No offence, Woolfy, if you happen to read this - as you're a god when it comes to bringing old Commers back from tin worm and all other nasties. So, spill the beans: Where did the lovely window seals come from? The quarterlight seals. They look brand new ! [:0]
