IT'S FINISHED !!!!!!!!!!!!
To start with, please excuse the photos. Very cloudy, and no sun. I'll take some more as I am able.
Marshall is a miracle worker.
Repo breech is being made........
To start with, a reminder of what I started with........
AND here it is now........
Marshall installed a Israeli lunette ring, and I have the original ring.

Very nice... I spoke with a WW2 last fall that commanded a 57mm crew and they used the Dodge WC61/62 to tow the 57mm and the guys.

Re: IT'S FINISHED !!!!!!!!!!!!
Yep, Marshall did a outstanding job....
He said they have restored about 50 57mm, and mine was the hardest he had ever done.
It can off a firing range, and had been run over by a tank, The trails had been cut off, and were bent, the 3" solid steel pintle pin on it was bent. It has bullet holes in the trails, and 1 in the recoil mechanism cap. I had them leave the bullet holes in it.....
