Some photos cooper sent through this week
A bit more work went on than first thought to install the inner window pressing
And after blasting there was few pin holes to weld up but thankfully not too much og paint was lost in the process
Getting close now and looking like pick up not far away
Cheers cooper

So cool. Rags are awesome.
Chasing any Neiman steering lock parts, will consider anything.

Man that workshop looks the biz...and as for the work coming out of it.
Very nice. The blend from the cut into the new on that roof looks unpickable.
Once some paint blended....Factory Fitted !! 8)

Yep he’s done a great job, especially crafting a square and flat rag clip to a somewhat bent uneven roof top
Looking forward to seeing it in the flesh

We are pretty fortunate to have someone with the skills/knowledge of Cooper in this state (literally 10 mins up the road from me), awesome work as usual. Looking sweet.

Got to love it when a plan comes together - looking great Brad and Cooper...
No matter what happens they can't take you out in the street and shoot you......

Yep, and we are actually doubly blessed as we have one in the north and another in the south....(and to the west is ocean and to the east are hills...)

That’s come together beautifully and is going to be one hell of a bus Brad.

Nice job Cooper!
