New M561 in family

[DotusPL]

Hi to all
I joined a family of M561 owners

The time has come to start a new project which will probably be a long way ...
I have a bit more difficulty than you guys because I live in the EU and the metric system does not help with that
My M561 is from Italy and was produced in 1972
I will probably have a lot of questions and I hope you will help me a little
Another report from the renovation on the SS forum

Wow. Attention to detail for sure.

Great acquisition, And splendid dedication to detail in the restoration as you are progressing with it.
Polish folk are noted for hard word and Being capable of ( fixing things ) normally junked!.
The two( new ) lads we have helping don't ever quit until they have completed a task. Great attitudes both.

Yep, Goat restoration is indeed a labor of love and a dedication to ear protection.

treasures are not always made of gold

Dotus the Goat is coming along nicely it looks like you found a pretty well preserved one, congrats! As far as the GOLD statement, I am not sure anything compares with NOS parts, especially BIG ones!! I look forward to following your progress and your detail work looks outstanding remember NO short cuts is the best route!!!

just to be clear .. NOS is just the rear differential and lamps. the rest is our job

So the diffs are Salisbury.... don't suppose you have a similarly marked box for the transfer?
Heard a rumour it's of English origin as well,

 

[DotusPL]
