Talking

At long last it's out of the shed and looking like a blitz again Still a bit of work left to do like add a tray and aim headights. Today I redesigned the 4WD engaging leaver to fit around the hadbreak rod and fitted the seats and droped the roof on. No time to make a box so I'll drop the spray rig on and remove the equiptment that will hae to do for now

It's not finished but I'm having a rego check tomorrow to see if I can drive it at Corowa. I'll hit the tray with a bit of paint on Friday. Fingers crossed.

HELLO COROWA, look out overdraft.
Thank you to all who helped me through the and , without your encourigement I would have quit half way. This last week has been hell at times.
No I didn't need screens for historical rego but if I put the screens in I have to have a working wiper and I haven't got that far yet

Thanks Cliff but there is a lot of work to do yet, those that get to see it up close will easily spot the flaws.
