    After all the dramas I had with the paint earlier this year (I'll have to blame the painter - oh hang on, that'd be me....), I got a bit done over the past few days I've had to do a bit on it. Fitted sound deadening to the inside of the roof, doors and the rear wall of the cabin and began fitting the new hoodlining, the rear screen/new lockstrip and just had to fit the rear window louvre - just to see how it looked of course! Fitted all new door rubbers, bailey channels etc.

    Don't have a finished pic of the hoodlining (without all those creases!) yet, but it came up well. Put the new tonneau clips and the rest of the external dressy stuff and badges. Starting to come together again, but plenty to do yet.

    Need to fit a couple of OS rivets to the left bonnet hinge which will get the left rear of the bonnet sitting properly and yeah, I need to fix a couple of runs I got in the black, which went on very thinly and really seemed to need to be loaded on thick. At least the yellow went on well.

    Yes, it look's very nice indeed. Haven't seen a louvre on a ute since the 70's, bring's back memories of the time.
