No i'm not ignoring you, just been busier than a busy thing. I don't think i've been on here since i last posted in May.
Anyroad, i've nothing to report yet apart from some minor trimming and stripping but i do intend to make a propper start this weekend. I had intended having it all built by last weekend for an event at Drumclog but a new job etc etc got in the way. |

Hey oup Graham, welcome back, nice to hear from you an' all of that
Pesky things these jobs aren't they? Get in the way of all the important things...
There was a mod'd truck on fleaby a while back that made me think of you - HERE. Not sure that all his claims are accurate but food fr thought
Lots of photos of the work please - looking forwad to seeing how your project takes off from here
Cheers _________________ Gav

I had a look at that on e bay a few days ago. Looks ok apart from the *beep* up stance, probably due to using a 4 inch lift all round and then losing a load of weight off the back. I'm hoping that mine will be level as i've bought 6 inch front springs and 4 inch rears, will see though. |

Been away for a week in Cyprus but got back at about 5am this morning. Picked up the dogs from kennels, some gas and some grinding discs. Managed to get a couple of hours at it this afternoon.

Bit more done today.
New quarterlights welded in.
Rear offered up.
Now i'm on to the fiddly bit. If the weather holds out then i should get the rear window frame trimmed up and tack welded in. |
