Well endless parts to clean up,
doors are now a decent colour all round
Image
red does reproduce oddly in pickies ??
tailgate rebuilt,all cabling made good and ladder refitted
Image
Image
as its a colour shift weve taken it back to where the interior will cover it
Image
have a large wire wheel on a bench grinder, its ideal for cleaning this sort of stuff and threads on screws etc
Image
and this bent corner is now straight again, Image
so cab doors to reassemble with fixed 1/4's and loads of small but still improtant bits to do then away :rollin
