I did think about that, but i don't want it to look like a tradies ute. anything i need will be strapped to the top like an army recon vehicle :P

Thanks for having a look matey. more to come tomorrow

If Warthogs had trays, they'd put shiz under the tray rather than expose their heads over the top of the vehicle to grab something.

Actually a lot of our vehicles have a lot of crap in bins and boxes

Lookin good mate! I know you won't really need it much, as you don't often cart tools, but it'd suit the theme of the ute, plus look amazing with some undertray toolboxes either side of the wheels :P

Wow! you guys are really getting treated this week lol!

Here's some more progress:

Dad couldn't get into work to open up the shed for me until 10:30 and I wanted a new numberplate lamp anyway so I went to Autopro for a squizz.

I looked at one that looked good, but then got offered this beauty for only $20 (I must be a magnet for bargains by now right?)



And here it is mounted on a dog-bone bracket i found in the laser cutter's scrap bin. It's not fantastic but it'll do.



And finally here's how it turned out, less the wheel arch flares. I still need to paint them up to match the bullbar.





Tomorrow I wire up the tail lights and should have her checked out and cleared if i'm lucky. if not i'll try for Tuesday, bloody weather!

[Rumbuck]

I'm still trying to comprehend the sharp edges.

Hell, mine has a crack in the chassis rail and they didn't defect me.

Tray looks good
That's a bit cruel of the police not to let you off with that...

[HONKYTONK]

Trays looking good, tail lights are questionable though

They're the stock ones, the replacements will be fitted on sunday when i get the tray bolted down.

Cops didn't let you off? Bit harsh?

Melbourne cops, go figure......
