Squat, place chin on chest, tuck head and tip forward, shoulders connect with ground and back follows through, legs go over the top and feet land on the ground. That's how I roll!

Ok its been a while I have been on crutches for a month now and have finaly been able to hoble from seat to seat to ladder (perched ) to do work on rhino

This roof that I was loosing sleep over I am pleased with its finish
To refresh I the foam fill inside had rotted a section of roof where PMG rack brace was fitted

The original patch taught me a lot in the thin metal work department
Image

Now after getting the roof to my best (with a lot of help from Surfbus Paul) I need to repair the upper quarter where ther is rot all the way down to top of engine lid
I need to repair this proir to painting roof

Have cut out bad stuff

Image

Have donor from bay (thanks chewy) but the corners are different and am making them as we speak
