    A chassis on a chassis - only a tight arse Brit would come up with a monstrosity like that.

    Great work you are doing .

    Ha. I look at it as they've already provided the longitudinal rails for the rear tray. An "integrated" design feature.... #137B 2A FC rebuild

    Got the bulkhead painted today. Rover Mid Grey, the original colour. Looking forward to getting it reunited with the chassis so I can start bolting stuff on.

    Had a bit of a play today. Bolted up a spare windscreen, sides and roof, to see how the lines look and visualise how the cab extension might work. The extended cab will be about to where the blue steel section is sitting on the chassis, or just forward of where I cut the side panels.

    Hi mate. Thanks.
    It'll be a "space cab" style cabin, similar to my sketches in post #21 in this thread. So yes, a fair chunk of that roof will be trimmed off in due course.

    Looks Great.
    Mate added a extended cab to his Stage 1.

    Radiator mounted up. I have used a Toyota 1HZ 75 series radiator as they are narrow enough to fit between the foot wells and also readily available. Rubber mounted using the std radiator mounts.

    A thermo fan fitted from a BF Falcon, being the go to retro fit fan for hot rods etc. Seems quiet enough and pulls a heap of air. I made up a shroud surround up using cut and folded 1.0mm gal steel sheet.
