    Ford 10 De Joux bodied special

    Hello all, just joined the forum because after many years I'm back looking for any info on a Ford 10 De Joux bodied special I purchased back in 2000 in Fielding ? with the help of Dallas Crampton and Alan Stott, both of whom have now gone.

    The car was/is in a very rough state and partially dismantled. After bringing to Australia, when I was working we rebuilt the main sections of the chassis with new steel tube due to internal rust. The number plate (AX69) was off the car but from indents on the bonnet it had been on the car a long time. I was given some history back in 2001 after connecting with a gentleman in Auckland but that has disappeared. The car is now in The Blue Mountains out of Sydney and after encouragement from my brother in law from ChCh who is interested in sourcing parts for me so that I can get back onto the car after years of ill health and life forcing me to store the car. Any info on this vehicle would be a great help in determining how to go about restoring or rebuilding and to what configuration.
