Marco, Jeff , Paul, Dicky..........fanx fellas , looks a bit stark at the mo but as i mentioned it will be toned down on the underside and bottom body work , i normally go darker than needed but once the dust coat goes on it leaves the shadow areas much nicer in all the nooks and cranies , i just do very light single coats at a time without drowning the effect...........there will be a tad of Hull Red around the bottom of the fuel tank corners and stowage rack etc Bill......i thought that be the one Anyhoo.......rear deck is primed.......ferk knows what it looks like as i`ve left it in the garage to dry for a bit, it was good fun trying to get a coat on this with the wind blowing.....in the dark with just the garage light on Other than that.........the rest of the time i`ve been sticking bits back on!! ........the bits i KEEP knocking off , also in hindsight i wish i`d bought the linkage plates just out from the chassis a tad, when the load bed goes on it fouled slightly on the middle support.....i had to jus trim it a tad and so far so good......however.......there is a very slight rock from corner to corner when it`s on the chassis still....it seems one of the front supports is a gnats short by about half a mil........i`ll fill that gap as it seems to fit alright everywhere else...........in the meantime i`ll try not to break anything else

Good looking tread work with the dusting mucker . This is the tricky stage of the build for me also . Handling will sure as heck mean more re-dusting .
