Thanks for the reply Dano, I was just curious,that's the thing about road trips in old vehicles,it's always an adventure!
At least your later engine is a full pressure unit,i'm not sure i would like to try a trip like that with an old babbit pounder!

Mind you,there's plenty of our US counterparts do long road trips in totally stock original trucks,but at least they have a better parts back up over there.

I love your panel,nice patina and it looks pretty solid!
The artillery wheels are a nice touch too.

BTW I hope the recent weather hasn't caused you too much grief,I have never seen so many flood warnings!
The main motorway near me was shut for hours the other day i've never seen anything like it,I think my next project's going to be building an Ark!
