    • Nice to back in a surf. Truck drives great and seems happy being back on the road for the first time in 5 years.

                • Thanks for all the great comments and encouragement over the past 20 month.
                  It has been both fun and frustrating at times but ultimately worth the time and effort.
                  I have a few small jobs left and then off to paint.
                  Hopefully I will be posting final pictures in September.

                        • Paint coming in at £2k, ouch! I better get saving. It will almost be painted twice, first painted white then baked before being masked up and colours applied before a final visit to the oven.

                          Or do I go for a cheaper single colour

                            Do it how you want it or you'll only have to do it again later.

                              Tough choice Brian. You know you'll probably never make back all the money & time you've put in, especially with a 2K spray job, but if you go for the cheaper option you know you'll always regret it.

                              Ill get my order in for some rock sliders in, that will help fill the coffers

                              • In case I decide to use a winch at some point, I made this bumper this week.
                                Full cage protection for the winch, probably have to fit the winch with the bumper off then lift into place. It will protect the winch very nicely thou.

                                Alloy fairlead for plasma or synthetic rope, clear lense indicators.
