will do thank you..

well fitted the fabricated Top Rail..and it dont look bad..not perfect ..but not bad..

Welded it all in place and made some top covers for inside cab as well

i then sanded the body all over with 120 the 140 so super fine now...
i gave her a Top coat of Primer and i will give her another two coats of primer then Top Coat..but i cannot find a good supplier for Nato Matt Green...any more suggestions?

I am itching to get the Top Coat done then for the inside..I must say from what she looked like she dont half look bad now..more work than i originally thought but worth it to see it come on now.

I keep forgetting to take the camera with me to the Mother In Laws as that is were she is being stored ..i will get some soon
