Remember these ratty old side curtains? A local upholsterer will be making a new set for me. I give him the go ahead tomorrow and choose the desired color. Will be taking close-up photos & measurements of the original D^D printing, to reproduce this on the new ones.

In the morning, I will be flipping a coin to see if I start on the windscreens or doors next. Either one will go onto the cab when finished, so i'm not really fussed which one I do first.

The 'night-time' job will be the Pyrene fire extinguisher. It is of brass construction, but really badly tarnished. I took to the holder bracket this afternoon with paint stripper. Tomorrow, it gets a coat of etch-primer and hopefully top coat.

I'll let you know tomorrow night, which job will be started next.
