Rob_Mitchell Posted October 23, 2010 Author Share Posted October 23, 2010 yeah nice pics adam. get a nice coat of primer on it next week and mess around on some little repair work, nothing drastic. i did mention to adam that maybe were have it back and do the roof and boot another day, going to and get them mopped up and try and remove some sinkage... then go from there. i think the work involved is always overlooked, thats why its nice to do these threads. oh excuse the mess lol were having a re-wire.
