045 Dodge S56 front
The Dodge S56 front looks fabulous now it has been cleaned back to bare steel. It has as expected exposed the full extent of the corroded areas. A lot of metalwork is now required to we may end up changing all the cab floor plated for new metal the wheel arch need a lot of TLC with the drivers one probably needing completely replaced. We had thought we could patch areas but with the metal now cleaned it is too far gone and it would be silly to patch it now then have to come back to it later and try to fix it on the bus so we will have the required parts fabricated and welded in, putting right what is nearly 30 years worth of corrosion.
