And now the weldmaster has attached an old bit to a new bit.

Can you guess what it is yet?

Not sure Rolf Harris quotes are suitable on a family forum any more!

 

 

 

 

On another note, That looks about 37% more like a pick up then it when I saw it the other day!

He will, one step at a time.

One step nearly done, and front footwell nice. Picture is a mock up to get cab height right for back step.

Engine bay gets some etch primer tomorrow, and no doubt the weldmaster will be cracking on.

Some progress today. One door step in, having painted all inside the sills and used lashings of seam sealer.

Just the other side to do tomorrow, and fit the panel behind the seats under the window.

Note the picture below is only a mock up, as clearly the weldmaster didn't have his gauntlets on.

Didn't get the rear cab panel in today as got stuck on other small repaires. Two steps back one forward at the moment.

Think positive. Lots more rot cut out, and plenty of panels prepped and in etch primer :-)
