haha well lately not much has happened as i started a new job and went to thailand for awhile. but i have started doing a fair bit in the last few weeks . on the weekend i nealy finished stripping all the green off just a bit on the roof to do.

the tale gate is pretty buggered had a heap of dints and a new patch welded in (piss poor job) . so i will have to try and find another or fix this one as best we can then bog it :L.

the left sill is nealy done we had to cut it out and weld in a new one . just have to clean it up and its done then start on the other side. [img][IMG]http://i990.photobucket.com/albums/af26 ... M_0143.jpg[/img][/img]
