Bit of bare metal and the epoxy hope to high fill tomorrow if weather holds

Doc, that silver against the red looks brilliant.

Do you remember the Jeff Hook cartoons? (for those not familiar he used to be a cartoonist in the Herald or something and hid a hook in every drawing).
I always spend the first few moments looking through your pics trying to find Daryl :)
I remember once in a while Jeff forgot to draw a hook and you would spend hours trying to find a hook that's not there.. only to see an apology in the following weeks paper.

Great work mate. Can't wait to see this bus rolling.

Cheers for the coffee this morning to.

Some more inspiring work there Doc'
I thought you mentioned you were going to boosted brakes on the Rhino, but I have it on good authority that those new lines beneath the floor are in fact for your reticulated beer system. Is this correct?

Cheers
