Another battery box

L516 is missing its battery boxes. This car had two 12 cell boxes on each side when built. In recent weeks we have been collecting parts to be able to assemble battery boxes under this car. As we collect each individual part it is needle gunned and cleaned before being primed and painted black.



Graham follows on with a coat of metal primer.

Gloss black paint in applied to all parts prior to assembly.

The frame is assembled to check all sizes and clearances. It will now be dismantled and be reassembled under the carriage.

To be continued next work day
