hi everyone haven't been on in a while dont mean i havent done anything sort of :) , i promised the misses i would make a log burner , so here it is outta a old gas bottle with a lorry exhaust for the chimney , i then thought i need a trailer to cart the car about so i ripped apart a caravan i got off ebay for 40 quid .

 . pulled it apart .

 . taken the top to the tip  .

 . and this is how it sits now .

 . i do have aluminium coveer ply from a old prison van for the running boards "long story" , i will just post  the pick of the cars progress up save me boring you :)   i stripped the box to find the center bearing was about to explode , so a good job thats getting swapped :) more progress soon :)
