Ok.......lots caught up with ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) .........still lots to do ![B-|](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/notamused.png) The whole assembly is now complete.......the interior fitted and housed inside the cab, cab is now attached to chassis ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) ....gotta say this was a feckin` nightmare to get to fit ![>:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/superangry.png) , i very nearly threw it at the wall at one point ![O_o](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/browraise.png) . The innards are suppose to slot inside the cab....yeah right!! ........ had to seperate the dash from the floor and fit it in 2 stages.....that was the easy bit!!! , when i tried to insert the floor it was havin` non of it.......in fact....i split the cab!!!! ![;-|](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/squint.png) ......luckily it was on a rear seam/join and it didn`t fracture the paint so i was able to fit the floor and clamp and glue with TETC. If the paint had of been knackered this would have gone in the loft.........there was no way i could have rectified it!! Front grill took ages to mask the outer surround so as to avoid getting the Alclad in the wrong places ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) ....the glazing all fitted...door handles/wipers fitted.......and the red guards above the front wheels........that is another story ![B-|](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/notamused.png) , all it needs now is to blend in the lower cab to match the other weathering..........still got more decs to add plus the stuff on the roof, mirrors and arms,etc Anyhoo..........nearly there ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)
