Thanks guys, Have spent the last couple of days getting rid of all the old rusty bits and putting in some new steel, fitting it to the chassis and made up a new frame behind the cab as the old one was bent and ugly. So now its all ready for a blast and paint. http://i987.photobucket.com/albums/ae354...
