Mk2 Stalwart Restoration Project First Look. Part 1.

Hiya and welcome to another military vehicle restoration project.
In this video i give a detailed look at the vehicle before restoration starts, and explain many of the things that need doing and differences between a mk1 and mk2.
This is the second Stalwart I have restored, a Mk2 "Limber" Vehicle which is fitted with a crane.
Originally I wanted to keep the petrol engine in this one but the fuel economy on these petrols is pretty terrible and it would often stop mid use when it got hot and refuse to restart unless you left it a while... not ideal !
A chance to aquire another engine turned up and seeing as I want this one to keep for myself and do some work with around the yard I thought it would be a good idea to change that and keep the petrol if it ever needs to go back in to keep it original, its a reasonable easy switch.
