Default Ready to roll

Over the last few days we've caulked all the newly fitted panels, the bulkhead and the front panel assy, nasty smelly stuff it is. As the bolts pulled up everything has become considerably stiffer than ever before.

Headlamp buckets & mounting rings were fitted, followed by the drivers floor panel and the wings / fenders. The grille is temporarily fitted and the bonnet / hood will be tie wrapped to the body ready for the drive home tomorrow from the workshop to the truck's shed at home.

Thank heavens the body's fitted as the weather's pretty wet and grizzly just now, so I'll get home soggier than I started!

A couple of pics for the record, one of the driver's footwell and one of the front end. Lots of detail work needs doing yet, including re-wiring of the front end and the last major job of straightening out the front doors before priming and painting. The latter will wait until the weather improves in Spring.
