Add drop gates and roll it as it is, or do something with the nose to blend it in - will look great!

It’s really taking shape now.

Yeah Dave, I have some rather dodgy gates for it, been collecting parts for this for about a year now, it should come together quickly from now as I have all the parts to finish it

Still got the original pass door that I straightened and it fits better than the repaired door, might put it back on after reg, also lights in and working, seats fitted for mock up, and painted the interior and outside up to roof
