And I managed to get a start on the o/s box too, pull out this section, fitted executive B post covers, not very clear in this photo. Cut 30mm off length of the box and assembled, again rounding the edges and filling in the holes etc

Ended up removing the whole side panel and glueing each section together, filling all the holes and joints, then trimmed with some leatherette.
Refitted and made a few repairs/modifications to the woodwork, decided to leave the fitted cool box out after 8 years, gonna go with my portable electric box instead. Run out trim glue, so can't trim lower part of storage box, of to screwfix I suppose for some carpet glue and hope for some nice weather tomorrow

All of a sudden, I thought to myself, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel with the interior refit... then I wrote a list of what needed doing, oh crap!
Not even been washed since last year.

Yes, that seems to be what I've been doing of late...
Just putting off some jobs that aren't that hard, but I just can't get motivated enough to do them. Ive got a load of electrics to sort, plus the wheels need painting again, on top of a load more leatherette to do still

Thanks guys. A few off cuts of carpet cut and glued down through the back and upto between the seats. I think the front is going to be a bit harder to do.
