Had a smashing afternoon in the garage today :(

IImage

Then continued on with tidying up the flutes on the loadbed of the pick up. Will crack on with it again tomorrow and see if I have a spare window in the shed :roll:

Took the pick up out of the garage for a dusting down with the airline, rearranged the garage and put the pick up back in. Next job is to finish off the O/S panel which shouldn't take long :)
