  1. No, just you and me at the moment. At least I have a pickup that needs it.

  6. I have a cover for it but I will probably for before the bodywork is done. Just need to fit new tank first.

  8. Keep the pics coming as and when. Some of us need inspiration for our own ‘quick’ projects..

    Good work and it must be so cool to have a workshop and lift to work in.

  13. Well it's been a couple of years and @davidoft had made two special visits.

    This time last year we replaced a chassis leg and external rear arch panels and rear quarters.

    This year(last week) was the inner battery trays, engine skirt and lots of other diddly bits, including a front arch filler panel blank.

    Also test fitted gearbox and engine.

    This week I will be mostly seam sealing and painting.

    Lots to do if I want to make techneders[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

  16. A few, that mock up block is a lifesaver

    The truck itself is now made up from 6 other vans and when I put the two new doors on it will be 8!!

  17. Day 9 in a row of working on the Doka, trying to do a little bit everyday, even if it's just an hour or two after work.

    Tonight was more seam sealer, 3 tubes done, at least 6 to go then the gravitex and then paint.

    Planning on fuel tank fitment this weekend[​IMG][​IMG]
