Progress is coming along slowly on this one, a bit more welding has been done and have cut off the rear corner and am waiting on more panels to come in.

Cargo floor is done. I haven't had alot of time lately, but I certainly haven't given up!!

Heading up Saturday to the 56, the upholsterer has completed the door cards/hoodlining etc and we will be fitting rubbers/windows/handles.

Bent up a couple of battery plates for inside the corners. Others were a little too ratty.

Haha. He wears those sandals all the time. It is slowly coming together.

Big plans to get stuck into it when I get back in a couple of weeks.

Have all the parts for the IRS. So that will be the next stage
