    Looking really good!

    Surprised you didn't do more dismantling before the paint job though?

    I removed the driver side flare & destroyed all the press studs- they are $1.50 each and there are 15 of them each side.
    I'll have to grab another 15 now as the pass side had to come off too. The badges had to come off in the end too.
    All good now.

    I managed to get 5 Rangie Vogue wheels off Ebay at a pretty good price ($260.00) including nuts. Another $65 to swing on the BFG's.
    Looks OK I reckon.



    Snorkels, flares and back windows are in & on Its dusty already.



    Here is my Co-pilot testing out his harness. - No smiles till his front teeth grow back



    Roof is lined & I put a couple of LED interior lights each side. Both are skewiff so at least I'm consistent.



    Just waiting on the Engineer to get back to me now...

    What type of snorkels are those, they look great. Sort of subtle and then you see two of them and just know there is something big and lumpy under the bonnet. Good looking truck

    I lost my post
    here is the rest.
    The project got an "airing & she is as sweet as, no gearbox noises, steers nicely and does everything that it should.
    This is my wifes pic, not so good a size.



    A bit of bling, can't remember who I got these from tho.







    The doors were a tight fit, even though the measurements were right, then I realised the series cabin has a return lip on the door seal lip which I ground off and the doors shut nicely now. The County just has a straight edge there.




    Still waiting on the #@%&?> engineer.
