its the only place big enough to build it you have to do what you have to do if he had finished his garage in time we could of done it in there but that is not yet complete

Nice job!:thumbs: Are you working from a proper set of drawings? It looks very pro and a long way from some of the converted/gashed jobs ive seen.

Thanks

I have had to work it all out and design it myself there is simply no drawings available for that sort of thing they are all custom jobs. I have still got to brace the sides and put the other side in as for the quality I take a lot of pride in my work ill update with pictures as it goes. The body has got to be unbolted when complete so the chassis can be painted and the new bed can be as well should hopefully look the part then

its coming along nicely now here is some updated pics














still got to add more bracings and the down ones to chassis rails to support the sides

All cross bracings are in just the side supports and a few other little bits to do now

I bet your neighbours love you! I'm impressed with the work though; excellent stuff mate.
