Well Grinnin..
As a matter of fact I have made a bit of a start..
Firstly, I checked the quantity of fuel in all those tanks..
Not really enough in any of them to warrant a milking!
Next..The fridge...Couple of Apple Ciders in there...Made a nice change for smoko.
Also helped to wash down the 3 Tim Tams I found in the console..
Once that was over with, I thought I would have a bit of a look around the outside..
And under the bonnet...Nice piece of CUMMINS iron under there...
Did I check the chassis number...Arr No...
No orange, blue or purple visible...
I was given a bit of a 'picture' the Big Fella thought may look good painted on the rear of the bunk...
So I needed to make so room..
Quick phone call..Ay Grinnin, whats the go with these aluminium gadgets on the bunk? Can i take them off?
Yeer sure chocs..no worries..go ya hardest..
What are they for..Well they are, I gotta go the other phones ringin....
Hmmmm..
Well this is what im asking about..
OH NO!
This wasn't on the plan!
Back on the phone....The number you have called is disconnected, if that's you chocs..
Well.. Spose I better get that sorted out prior to some artwork..
Bit of new sheet, bit of etch primer..
Down to the magic wand shop to grab some rattle cans to redo the silver....
Hmmm, this chromebrite is different to what he musta used..
Best slide off onto a different part of the project while we await the Magic Wand Shop to recalibrate the Silver Pearl color chart! :-[
A little bit of bling removal required here..
And a bit of bling replacement here..
Next, some sign producing equipment was rounded up for a few lines and scrolls
Bit around here
Bit of a squiggle under here..
Another bit up here.
Couldn't let it go without banging one down here..
Yep, that's a bit of door lettering up there..
That's not dry yet so ya can't see that..yet..
I can tell you that, I have used Pink, Purple, Black, Grey and White on the lettering though..
If the paint shop is free tomorrow, we might see about getting that rear panel color coded...(this time : )
Then throw a couple more 'contrasting' squigglies around here and there.
A bit of artwork midweek, and she will be ready to head north again...Just in time for the next big show.

Good one Chocs , you found the tainted TIM TAMS ! Did they make you sit for a while ? and the cider, if it was Dickens its not mine !!! . As far as fuel goes i have heard about your milk runs so she should be near empty .
Back to buisness, she is looking good and im happy you couldn't find the carnation pink,red ,purple , what ever it was . Any how keep at it cant wait to see the end result.
Cheeeeeeeeeers GB

Bit of a cruise day today, a few squigglies etc, in between some regular signage chores..
All starting to come together now...
The end of the week is sneakin up fast!
A big thanks to the Big Fella for sharing the progress of this job with 'us'...
You get to see it as he does...
Won't be many surprises left!
Thanks for looking..

A few 'feature' lines and contrast scrolls today..
Some 'detail' for Young Mate, the passenger
Contrast scrolls to the bunk and wings
The magic wand sorted the color on the rear panel,
lined and scrolled ready for a 'play' tomorrow.

Looking Great Chocs , The Magic wand did work!!
I was showing Bronsan the photos and at six years old you can spell in, at, on, is, and of course your own name, He was stoked when he saw it . It was a big WOW.
Can't wait for the grand finallie on the back of the bunk. See you friday

What did you do with the Ally of the back we could recycle that into bling
Better than scrap value

There was mention that the proceeds of that ally could or would become a substantial proportion of my wages..
