We had an awesome day attending warbirds D-Day event at Ardmore today. Great displays, and awesome to catch up with friends.
We managed to gather enough bod's to form our own Brit Para section for the re-enactment battle.
A whole heap of fun had.

We recently were given an old, and worse for wear ford flathead V8. The starter was later found, with a generous coating, inside and out of mud, and cow matter. We all decided this would be an awesome test for the evapo rust, after a good water blast, and three days in the bath, hey presto. Cheers Evapo-Rust Australasia.

Here at LPMM, our mentors are far from run of the mill!
6X6 GMC chassis, and running gear sandblasted, and painted. Very exciting stuff.
What a find!
Nearly out!
Quietly waiting for their turn in the workshop.
Making progress, chassis sand blasted, etch primed, top coated, engine placed. Just waiting on thrust bearing, and the gearbox can be installed. (And tidy the workshop) ๐๐งโ๐ป๐
We're always keen to try new products methods, tools etc, and have recently added an evapo-rust bath to the facilities. Well, all that can be said is "why the hell didn't we do this sooner?!" It works surprisingly quickly, save time and money, with awesome results. The skippy cylinder head has come up like new. You have got to try this stuff out. Cheers Evapo-Rust Australasia
