[quote="MrCoffee"]Looking good! Where did you get the chequer plate and the metal edging strip you can see in the last picture?

I`ve been having a nightmare trying to find either!

Try B&Q Warehouse, also scaffold planks make excellent ramps, cut a standard board in half, you can then split the 'spare half' and add sides to your ramp to keep your wheels on it.

Gotta say I'm a bit disapointed in it, not very reflective. This pic makes it look better than it actually is


The old saying "get what you pay for" pops into my head :x :(


I've got Class 2 red daylight reflective on the insides and door edges so when the rear doors are open hiding the reflectors speeding muppets and tractors don't hit it, also EBAY think it's £4 pm.

The CD and CB just fit in the hole. I cut up part of the old fascia adaptor to fill the space next to the cb and make a holder for the mic


Not much to see about the aerial...

It's 1.5m high, you can just see the silver spring in the middle of the roof there
