Re: My truck, work in progress
long over due update of this if people are still intrested:
Made more progress, got both the rear wings on now and the inner bed liner mocked up, rear lights placed in but still need a bit of fetling to get them right. Mocked up the rear with the spare tyre mocked in at the angle it will sit at.
cut the bottom of the wings to suit the body lines of the truck and front wings more.
with the wings on before the liner was fitted and before they were cut:
font liners in:
bit of a jump as i got carried away and forgot to take pics lol:
Think it is finally coming together ! buck still needs to come off so all the final welding can be done and paint can go on.
got some pics of the progress leading up to this if people are interested i can post that up
cheers

If health permits, I'll be at any and all SCUK and HPOC meets next year, so maybe I can get to see the beast up close!gamble63 wrote:when its done ill be bringing it to the hpoc meets when they happen
