Re: 1960 Traveller Full Restoration

Thanks for you comments ptitterington............... I do take note of what you are saying, however, I might not be a specialist welder, but I will make sure it will be safe........ Maybe not straight and square, but safe. Much safer than when it was last on the road I'm sure. There must be plenty o...

Re: 1960 Traveller Full Restoration

HI I havn't even thought about the timber yet! All the metalwork will be 'best guess'. As the replacement rear arches seem to come in three bits - the first is the inner, then there seems to be the flange that fastens to the wood, then the outside arch. I will only weld the inner arch in and leave t...

Re: 1960 Traveller Full Restoration

Hi All, Thought I would push it out of the garage for a quick clean up of all the rust on the floor!!! Just a few photos of what it is looking like at the moment.

Re: 1960 Traveller Full Restoration

HI All, Been stripping it all down and now nothing left...........as Ian suggests. Done lots of practising with my welding techniques and am quietly confident to start to fix some 'simple' panels. I thought I would start with the rear boot section and one of the inner wings (L/H). I have cut away th...

Re: 1960 Traveller Full Restoration

Hi,

As I progress, the more I feel less confident in the welding side of things and am thinking of asking an expert to do all the welding.

Is there anyone who has any thoughts or knows someone near Rugby?
