Get a small rubber door stop type thing from dyas or somewhere and push it inbetween the 2 bits of glass?

So the day started here,

And got them fitted along with the slam panel. Tidied most of the wiring in the wings up, Got power to all the lights now just got to fit them tomorrow.

The paint was flaki

aaronmorris · Aug 17, 2013

So the paint was flaking of the chequer plate so I decided to paint it,

[/URL][/IMG]

I used a grinder with a wire wheel to remove the paint. Which it didn't take to kindly to when it started smoking

[/URL][/IMG]

Looking a bit better

used an etch primer then high build and a top coat.

[/URL][/IMG]

While I had the paint out I though I might as well do a few other bits,
So I took the truck cab window to bits and painted that as well as the exhaust ring

[/URL][/IMG]

Also painted the headlight surrounds and grill, Thought I might as well while I was painting, If it looks crap on I'll change the colour of them at a later date.

The pipe should have a flare on the end of it I think.

Caspee22 · Aug 18, 2013

You thought anything about security devices i.e central locking?

aaronmorris · Aug 19, 2013

Not a lot done tonight. Just the bonnet and front panel in primmer.
****ed of because my air line also started leaking

So need to try and find a replacement asap.

Probably just a disclok and pedal lock, Not fussed with central locking, If they want it they'll smash a window
