G'day Cam..
Its 'another' one that was in better overall condition i think..
With the time frame available and the additional repair work, asides of what is visible..the decision was made to go this way..
The 'spare' could just be the start to another one of Lorry Builders projects? :-/
Either that or somewhere for the boys to sleep once the Office Ladies find the remains of the cheque book this morning... >:(

Well have a look at this!
Now we have 2 fuel tanks, actually on the truck..
I am tippin there will be a polished fuel tank sale coming up soon ;D
Not to mention the drive guards are done too! [smiley=thumbsup.gif]




With some more engine accessories fitted up..Ol Jimmy is closer to letting the smoke out now!




Some proofcoat under the cab just to finish things off under there..
(Proofcoat.......haven't said that for a day or two..
sounds better than Under Body Sealer i reckon ) :-/




Ok back to the cabin....
More paint!
All the top section is masked out i readiness for the stripe work..




Hows that look? Should it be the other way 'round? :-/




The 'mask out completed on the front..




Some 'test' color here.........hmmmm Yep! [smiley=thumbsup.gif]




Thats looking flash!
I don't think there will be much time elapse before that is 'back masked' for the second color..
Just put my glasses on....
We have two colors there!! ::)

Might change that to.......
Don't think it will be long 'till the mask is removed, and the clear applied! ;)



Stay tuned......
