Hi guys it's been a while I did some little work on her, I did all the wirings except the right side wirings for headlight and blackout lights. As still waiting for my right mudguard from repair factory. I got a radiator rebuild and install it.
I when to take my WC51 radio dodge project out for a drive about 1 km I broke down as the distributor came loose off the timing and oil pump, found out the bolt that hold the distributor snapped. So I don't know which one is number 1 position. So my father came with a tractor and tow me back to the shed and fix it again,
It was not so easy to get the broken bolt out.

Picture of my father towing me and my dodge ( Diffy ) back to the shed.

Howdie
I’m intrigued by the Radio Airfield heading.
Can you elaborate what do you mean by that?
Does it mean that this WC-51 carried a radio?
If so, what type and what voltage did it run on?
Thanks
Mike Hrycak
