Slow work more like it...
Was nice having the pickup on the roller so at a good height for access.
Cheap panels that need cutting up and reworking, got to love 'em...
Then have to stitch them all back together again.

almost 2 years down the line... That long a project that the hosting company has gone under so none of the photos work any more.
This Christmas is the pick-up's turn after Jen's bus last year.

Some more progress over the summer.
De-skinned the locker lid frame
New smooth skin without louvres
LHS spot welded on
Looking forward to getting this all painted over in one colour as that always makes it feel like its moved forward
Floor welded in now too
One of the last gaps closed in
