I thought it was going to be Dukes of Hazzard style
(bit high off the ground to slide over the bonnet)
Looking good JB

He told me I need to weld the doors up... I said um... ok... He then showed me that after they are welded up then he can get his foot into the corner to lean the whole window frame across to get the gap correct. There is always a way to get things done I guess. He is one talented dude alright!! Cheers JB
He's been taught by an old school beater as that's how my grand father (who's father showed him) showed my old man who showed me.
Ute is coming along nicely JB, looking forward to seeing it with some colour.

After some more tidying up its off to the painter... Sills finished, gaps, gearshift position to name a few.
So here it is at the painters, ready to be pulled apart again. Doing the underside and firewall first as well as the subframe to fit the engine back in again before the outside to be done.
Cheers
JB

Bet your chomping at the bit.
Got all my doors on and drove mine out of the shed last night.
It was a bit late to send through any updates but proud as punch.
Cheers mate keep us posted.

JB, looking good. I know it looks close to having paint on it but as always when you are relying on other people it seems to take forever. Hope it all goes smoothly. Regards Brett

I like the Nasco boot spring replacement system and how it has been adapted for use on a Rotissery. Good work on the accessory
