Dave, the way that you have put them pictures together is as good as your work on the SC.  Top work mate, everyone will appreciate your effort - see you tomorrow

FINISHED!!!



OK not really. but heres a model that bj and vlkswgn made for me to give me a bit of inspiration to get the real one done. this is pretty much what the ute should look like when it is finished. thanks a million guys, i think its working.

That's great I thought you had finished all the welding for a second...

The shot from the rear corner looks spot on - those wooden slats are topz!!!
