    yeah i spoke with the distributor, told him the intended use (very low UV exposure) and it came highly recommended and guaranteed! Thanks for reminding me though. Looks like the GTS wheels option is no more :(

    Started to strip down the top tailgate and found the pivot points were loose so I drilled them and slug welded them. These will be ground down later

    Hi Grant (Grunt)
    Uncle Bob from the US here, Your mum sent me the link to your sandman restoration.
    You have done an amazing job so far and the results look great.
    I am sure you will be very proud of the finished product and have a fine sense of achievement once it is completed.
    Keep up the good work.
    Bob
