Morning mate
Thank you very much.

Yes, agreed on the theme of mods.

I also absolutely agree on older style stuff on Cragars, they are fine on the truck, but I needed a change.

Also, the Cragars are tired, some chrome damage etc.





Anyone remember this....l?






Got collected in the dark two weeks ago.


Ross runs a custom/insurance repair body shop.

I had asked him how much and if he would paint the trucks grille to Cody colour for me.

When he fetched the little caravan, he said he would paint the grille for me, free of charge.

So when I had disassembled the grille, he got it and some paint and said he would get onto it ASAP.

Pretty pleased he was doing it, as he has all the kit and materials on site, and could do it on the side.

Last night a bunch of pics landed, along with a message.


Prepped it.

Primer.







Then some colour coats.







First clear coat went on.




A few more clear coats to go on and some decent drying.

Then back to me.

Reassembled and Refitted.

Looking forward to the front end coming together, cleat lenses and side repeaters included.


So what can I do today to keep busy?
