David Bantoft (TAS) - Swallow Doretti
1954 model -
Commission # 1262

Photographic record of a restoration in-progress.

STAGE 5: rear-end progress May 2003

CLICK PIC TO VIEW:
The pics are self explanatory, they are all of the rear end that was assembled March '03. The shocks were reconditioned by Leslie & Sons in Melb. I have fitted urethane bushes into the stock tramp rods and the new brake hose was supplied by ABS.

Work has now stalled as I have located a problem in the rebuilt passengers side front. Some work previously carried out on the lower rear suspensionmount is incorrect and I have to dismantle it again, not easy as the urethane bushes are a tight fit and access is limited due to the engine mount. Just as well I'm not in a rush!!!
