370 in Europe
Another 370 thread, but this one is in Europe, 2nd one I believe .
I would like to thank all the 370 enthousiasts who helped me and the previous owner, Charles , to get this one to The Netherlands.
I will try to post pictures about this particular 370 .
It’s at this moment at a specialist who is getting it ready for the Dutch roadworthiness certification.

Front bags replaced
Wel the front bags are replaced, they where a bit on the dry/ leaky side.
Did have an issue to get these as the Firestone ones are NLA
Got a good replacement fitting continental ones.
And also found out how to repair the old ones..

Crusty side drawers
Wel the side drawers were slightly crusty where there wasn’t any air.

Tag axles before and after
Last pics are the process of de-rusting. Done by a Lazer it’s a pity I can’t post a film. only new parts were the brake rears. But the drums are the original ones.

Wheels and nuts.
I will need wheel a couple of wheel nuts, thanks to Kenneth, I know which ones I will need as he was so kind to measure his.
But ……. No chance of getting them here.
I’ve found a resembling part which fit to a Freightliner.
That takes care of the Nuts, however I do want to get the Budd lugs as well and they seem to come in three different lengths .. which would I need?

Looking good, I'm so glad she found a new home with a new owner with DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP pockets...lol kidding. I would never have had the time, energy, or attention span to fully restore the wallet bomber. I look forward to seeing the progress on my former yard ornament...lol
