Found one like it at Pep Boys. Same price.

Thanks Russ. I searched Engine Works and it looks like its wholesale only.

Winter sleep eating to much english pudding , egg and bacon !

Its with you Brits , your eating a lot of the good food and get sleepy when winter comes. How is the weather by the way in England , stormy , snowy , rain. Remember last years chaos on the roads. Wish you a happy X-mass.

Nice to hear from you again Martinius.

Hi Neil

Hey Neil didnt i see this truck on wheeler dealers that show on tv.

 

[brit 50]

Nah!

Hey Neil didnt i see this truck on wheeler dealers that show on tv.

Lol, the truck on that show was "tarted" up for sale and the tv show bought it, lot of things didn't add up with that truck, bit like how much they spent on it didn't add up too! Lol

Over the winter I pulled the old glass and redid the side windows as well as the windshield with a new rubber and glass. I also recently bought An Air Cooler which I have refreshed and is in for paint (same green as the roof)

Next up will be carpet. I'mn looking for a nice deep brown in high quality carpet (not he usual loop stuff) in anyone knows where I can source it?

And finally to the bed wood. I need all the stainless strips, bolts and wood (Oak?) but am dreading the shipping from the US....
