In 1969 dad rescued this 1928 Chevrolet (10,485 original miles) off a Gippsland farm, he then stored it for a further 41 yrs in his workshop. A few months before dad was suddenly diagnosed with "AML Leukemia" in May of 2010 we spoke about getting it out of the shed, dads said "We'll get it running but we're not painting it all fancy". Sadly this never happened as dad passed away after a 6 week battle on 14th June 2010, I owe dad this restoration so here is my story of "Monty" our 1928 Chevrolet.

Resto: Front brakes removed today
Just a quick update on my brakes progress for this weekend, today I got into the shed early and removed the two front wheels and also the brake pads, then I got stuck into cleaning the housings up and BTW the 2 x pads on both wheels looked to have about 4mm thick of wear left on each one which is quite good but soon all the four wheels will have new brakes and wheel bearings to suit.
