Getting everything back on now

Starting to put everything back into the bulkhead these bits were showing some surface rust and so would have brought the look down so I've shotblasted them and given them a new lick of paint

Depends what your after, mines a challenge spec full frame up to msa standards with a crossbar roof. Most of this spec are £700 flat pack weld yourself, the p&p giggle pin frame fully welded and painted ready to go is around 1200 but for a lower spec or truck cab ones the price is different, if your after just a rollover hoop and rear stays it'll be around 1-200
