bit more progress today
when i left the other day we were left with this

so today meant start to cut the back off the other van

the floor was a lot better than expected

even the back valance was solid leading to most of the afternoon cutting it off
so this is how far we got today (bit slow on the progress )

hopefully the back should be off tomorrow
