    Nice to see this on the go again. Far too much work done and looking far too good not to see it completed.

      I was lying in bed this morning thinking enough is enough, that truck is going to be terminated, junked, thrown in the bin, but after having a good day including a haircut and getting a doctor's appointment for tomorrow I went up to the bench and had a change of heart.



      The top is still to be fixed on, spare wheels to go in the rear, the cab is just loose as there are lots of parts to fit to it yet, mirrors, door handles, grab rails, spot light bars etc. Not the way I envisaged it but it will have to do, at least the rear door opens. Lesson learned for me, do not try to do something outside your skill set, or put another way, do not let yourself have a triumph of enthusiasm over skill by cutting things up and then finding out you have not done it correctly. Anyway, onwards and upwards and one of these days I may modify something and get it right, says he hopefuly.

      Andy.

        Well, these days you have to do something to celebrate getting a doctor's appointment.

          Yes indeed, I must have been lucky as I got a cancellation, if I had been later, or earlier I would have had to wait, probably for at least a week.

              Wow!!! Great that you didn't bin the kit Andy. That is a stunning result, even if the sides don't open up. After adding the tidbits, this will be a really fantastic monster truck Sir!!!
