Thanks Russ,

There is still more work to be done. Hopefully over the summer while I'm back from uni i will carry out an aesthetic/mechanical overall of the entire underside. It's being completed as a sort of tribute to my Grandad and so i want to do him proud and produce a vehicle anyone would be proud of :)

Really good work there.

Might be worth thinking about fitting a heated front screen. I cannot believe the difference it has made on damp mornings!.

fantastic, what a neat and tidy Pickup you now have. I bet taking a load will cause you worries with such an immaculate cargo floor. Won't want to get that scuffed, a few old army blankets on standby?

Hi all,

Have just finished the interior off, makes so much difference, much quieter as well to ride in.

Hope you like it.

Regards
