New to the Forum, first post, and all that.

I've finally started working on my civilian Bantam. The body was completely rusted/roached out. Saved the taillights, metal and frame for tailgate.

Currently sanding and painting the frame and axle.
Removed, cleaned and repacked the bearings. Installed new seals.

I'm thinking about having a body made out of diamond plate. The sides , front, rear, and floor. Going to price it out. I don't feel like waiting 8-12 months for Quadratec to deliver a new body .

I believe DLBensinger has a New Tub in stock $950
 
I contacted them last week as soon as I found out MDJUAN actually used my provided patterns to start building T3-C parts.
 
And they are in PA

I found two numbers so far ;
The piece the leg attaches to has:16494
The piece that bolts to the trailer has: 19465 or 19485 or 19495

I'm sure of it being a 1947 bantam.
