I don’t often post stuff from eBay, but I was sorely tempted by this one I have to say!
Having previously owned a US Spec Ranger the bug lurks near the surface
My heart says buy it, my brain and the post Brexit £ to $ exchange rate says no sadly 🙁
Lovely vehicle, take a look here
As you may know the car came with a very poor quality hydraulic brake conversion, to rectify this I gathered the parts to convert the system to the superior 46-48 single adjuster system. I was however missing two grease boxes for the rear. Luckily I’ve managed to track down a pair on eBay from a nice gentleman called Al for a very reasonable cost. Hopefully these will be winging across the pond shortly!
Grease boxes shown below

Update 31/07/15
Managed to sell the old brake set up to a very nice man from Oxford, they will live on as part of his A pickup project !
A bit of an update on the blast cabinet project started in the winter, stalled,and now nearly completed in the spring. We made the holes with a combination of hole cutters and the Dremel, decided to go with three for a bit of flexibility. The gloves are from eBay, taped in, but do the job! Air line goes in at the bottom corner, and the chimney is a piece of waste water pipe. Just need a filter for the chimney and we’ll give it a test. Not the most attractive thing you’ve ever seen but I think it will serve it’s purpose!
Great opportunity to own an excellent blank canvas to build a “patina” hot rod truck. This one has the sought after tall cab.

As I’ve got many horribly dirty and grimy parts on the A, I thought this looked a handy little project for the small parts (found in the magazine Practical Classics August 2014 edition)
I have all the items with the exception of the gloves, which I’ve ordered from eBay.
I’ll post some pictures once our version is in progress.
