The main reason l decided to go for the H series gearbox. I keep hearing that H55 parts are hard to come by.
I can ask him, let me know what the radiator is from and l’m sure if it’s available he will know. As we were looking at the pile of radiator brackets he was rattling off what vehicles they fit. He has spent over 30 years doing radiators and l wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Poor old girl has been sitting out in the weather with a cover on her and the bare metal was starting to rust more than l would have liked. So pulled the roof to try and clean it up and spray some paint on it. Found that under the rear window panel had rusted up as well so attacked it with the poly strip and primed her up. Finished off the bracing for the cab cut and cut the last sections and spot welds. Pushed the rear section back 300mm to see what the proportions look like

You can still buy new H55Fs, so almost all parts are still available separately, though strangely the fifth gear set seem to be out of production. The issue is with the long 21 spline input shaft for the B Series engine.

Sounds like a great shop you've found there for radiators. I'm interested in a four-row core for a Land Cruiser 60 - it's about 610 x 400 x 60 mm.

Cheers!
