Wiz have you waved your wand over those rear wheels? Perfect proportions!

Back on this for the last couple of days, had a go at trying to find the OG paint, it’s underneath 7 layers of paint, just using paint stripper with a small brush, going to take a while

A couple more hours to knock some low spots out but as Phil once said to me “ That looks ok but not as good as if Cooper did it”, I took it as a compliment

Test fitted the bed and separation panel, knocked out a bunch of dints and ground out a lot of bog in the long side, there was no OG paint on the long side or corners, looks like I will end up painting more than I was expecting

Got the tray glued on today, take the screws out tomorrow and weld up the holes, getting closer to giving it back and picking up the Dual Cab
