    I bought my 1951 Slough built Big 6 in 2016 and it is in need of a total renovation. The engine needed new liners and pistons and the cylinder head was scrap as one of the valves had melted a valve seat. I have just finished rebuilding the front brakes and currently struggling to get the steering rack back together. It was bought as a retirement project and it certainly keeps me busy. One of the biggest issues has been getting hold of the numerous special tools that are needed for just about every job. Living in Australia the bodies suffer less from rust but they are not completely immune. Parts availability is good but at a price. IMG_8052lowIMG_8058
