Now taken the switch panel on the dash, front grille strobes and TFT screen (but not the camera yet!) out of Gabby and onto Fay.


Made up a bracket to stop the microwave from flying about:

Also done more painting, but there's still more to do, the ramp is like the forth bridge, never ending paintjob :roll: . Wired up the alt red which are fitted below the rear bumper too. Hope to be getting a new lightbar soonish, we'll see what happens


But best of all swapped the insurance over the other day, papers just came through so I could tax it :)
Might take her out for a wee spin later if I can clear the thousands of tools and parts out of her :lol:
