More parts arrived while I was away, and I managed to pick a few bits up before I went away to work.
I ken that bits and bobs need painted, but thats a job for the warmer weather!

new boots (well secondhand) chequer wing tops, spare wheel carrier removed from the bonnet and chequer plate fitted, chequer sils fitted, also a rear work lamp,(no photo yet) there might be a seconr work lamp on the back once ive repaired the back door and fitted a check strap so it doesent wipe it out. oh yes and the most important bit a radio aerial and radio.

Good stuff mate ... reason I asked about the hard top is that she looks like she has all the soft top tie down points all around the body. Usually means it's had a soft top on.
I haven't got a winch on mine either but will rely on a mate and a 5t ratchet strap for now

HAHAHAHA! Nah mate, the shed was gone

The only bit that remained was the back door. It was made from that twin wall perspex stuff held on wi' a couple o' gate hinges!!

Now that would have looked great with a couple of hanging baskets either side where the work lights would normally live
