Thanks, thought I would try a different format.

I think the tail screw was an original fixing, Kev, but there was a spare wheel-mount washer missing when in came apart. It does rather appear to be a bit of a scrapper, with 'restoration' being a bit overstated, given the casting damage, but you have made a pedigree out of a mongrel pup, nonetheless. You can see how bad it has been by the shiny paint on the outside and the rust on the inside. Shame.
A helluva lot of work, Kevin, but an immensely satisfying result to take away with you: it might never be original, but it'll display proudly! I'd put that down as my first quarter "Restoration of the Year' so far! The single colour is superb

Many thanks Fraser, I done my best with it, polishing a turd comes to mind.

[@diecastflashback]

That was a tough one, good job✌️😎

[@kevsdiecastrestos]

Thanks Don, I was expecting that casting to snap in two..

I bet, I've got a Dinky dump truck I'm getting ready to do and cracked at the cab
