Hi guy's I have made two cupboards, one big and one small. I modiffied the big cupboard a bit with sliding doors so it is more of use to me.
I finely have alot off pictures of the inside off the radiobody thanks to our member sparky form the UK. he has a morris wirelessbody to, thanks sparky he was oke with it to show some pictures.
the first three are his and the last two are my cupboards.
I started on the genny box and the 2 lee enfield holders. the big box on the vender next to the chair in sparky's picture, I have one to, but don't know what's it for ? I have to do that next time.
cheers for now.

hi guy's here are some pictures of the inside of the radiobody it is ready.
the desk is inplace ready to take the radio, only the switchboxes need to be put in place. all the cupboards ready and the unknown box on the vender to is in it's place, to take what ever it has to.
all it needs are some old posters on the walls and some equipment.
the next step is to paint the camo pattern (mickey mouse) on the outside of the truck and the it is ready, I hope

thanks alex, yes I'll try to be there this year (if I get a carburator problem solved.)
I have the inside ready, all painted. the desk is in place for the radio, only need to put the junctionboxes on there spot on the wall. I used some glue to put up some ww2 posters (A4 size) on the wall to get the right atmosfeer.
the outside was ready to paint on the mickey mouse camouflage. this took some thinking work to get it right (it has to look good to).
I allso gave it the decals of the 49th west riding (polar bear) division, signal corps attached to the recce regt of this division. this because the recce of this division helped liberating holland (roosendaal,arnhem,amersfoort,utrecht,amsterdam, den haag) as part of the canadian army.
see you next time guy's
cheers jaap

You have a truly remarkable vehicle! Your restoration thread is my favorite, and always gives me inspiration to get back to work on mine. Thanks for sharing the photos and congratulations, your vehicle on a scale of 1 to 10 is a 20 in my books.
