Paul Bav got one of a chap who had two cast, I think Tornado sells them not quite like these trim ones though more like this. I am thinking of getitng one

Looks nice not so sure about cable tying the brake hose to the upper arm though :)

That's a whole sled pack there my daughter would die for a Huskie like those!! Looking good, I would look to get a set of these I got mine from Paul Bav when he got his build rolling, I think he got them from Mick they make life sooooooo much easier. You can roll the chassis around with ease...

Get yourself a rivet spacer as well best tool in the box for this phase plus air rivet gun its a ball ache without as the others say, also I used my bandsaw quite a lot for trimming panels, thin fine tooth blade is really good.

Congrats, my daughter just gone back to Reading Uni for Year 3 in Psychology, she says I could be a case study!!

Must be one of the best club magazines out there and damned good value for money

Some of mine

Just to add to the comments above, could not have worked on my build with a nicer team than SGT, even my at times daft questions were met with a solid response, always a pleasure to pop down for a catch up and put the world to rights, glad Mick you are not caravanning the whole time and will be...

Get a damned good fire system as a start and hope to never use it, a big ish investment but in the scheme of things bugger all
