Sankey number 2,just a tidy up project.

Post by the landy man » Sun Mar 06, 2022 6:04 pm

I've just bought another Sankey NT,needed a trailer that I could use for general rubbish,tip runs etc etc....but it's just not possible for me to leave it as it is.
The trailer is complete,tub has random rot but I got it for a reasonable price.

No doubt that by the time you have finished tidying it, it will look like new.

I need it for general use at home as my other Sankey is far to nice(and wrong colour for the green lightweight).
Just a tidy up for now.

Hiya mate,long time no see,hope you and Mandy are OK!
I've already stripped most of the brackets,towing eye etc etc off the front end,blasted today,prime tomorrow and top coat somewhen soon.The tub and chassis will just get a "face lift" for now as I need the trailer usable.
You coming down to Capel for a :! ?

I know, yes we are thanks! Yes, I should get my s### together and book up Capel - or at the very least, come down for the day. But staying for :! is definitely better!

Good to hear sankey no.2 is already being given the treatment!

Cheers
