Managed to refit the cross supports to the tub and used some rubber to separate the ali from the steel where possible. Was hoping to paint the inside though had a set back with my cheap pop rivet gun!! Only get what you pay for!!

After a well-earned break fishing in Scotland back to the rebuild. Managed to remove the tub carpets/ brackets etc. Now replaced the tub back onto the chassis to start preparing for the paint.

Thanks honolulujoe
Had a set back with wife ill and had to look after 5 horses for a few weeks but will be back into getting it complete for Xmas I hope. Just hoping I can remember where it all goes. I have yet to prepare wings and roof for paint but will leave them until the tub is back on.
Cheers
 
After a time away from project managed to get the tub in primer and ready to top coat. Quite pleased with the finish so far.
Cheers
