Lifted the 15" gauge wagon my uncle Neil Wood built in the 1980's out from the bush today(weed spray wagon, 1 tank of compressed air would blow into the chemical tank & make it spray out the nozzles), going to remove the gear & turn it into a flat wagon to start with, the tanks will be repurposed for a couple 7.25" wagons. Going to cut the rusted bolt on the hornstay & removed the wheel and axle block which will need addressing as currently seized. Some bolts can be undone with some crc, others not so lucky with bolts rusted into dust.
Removed the bulk of the rust then covered it with crc rust converter then a coat of hamerite enamel green. Managed to get a 19mm sheet of plywood to serve as the deck. Wheels spin freely thanks to what appears to be roller bearings and the axle boxes can travel up and down.
