Should keep the surface rust off though. Looks like epotek.

Started work on the wings of the chassis, started with the inner repairs so that I don't lose position of the mounting holes.

You are doing great work on the wagon Neil. I am really enjoying being a spectator of what is a really comprehensive restoration.🙂

Barney is feeling cold and old. Oh, that's me.
Actually, he is running nicely and waiting patiently for his steering upgrade which is happening in a few weeks. I've been moving a few spare parts on lately and Barney has recently had his share of admiring visitors who know him and Wilma from the forum. Someone even made an offer. 🤣
