Im still a bit puzzled on how to hold the radio and CB to the shelft so it doesnt bounce around.. my idea is something like this: So, something like a 'T' shape with a threaded bolt as the middle, going through the shelf and then a wing nut or something to clamp the radio and CB down onto...

not trimmed... removed! and all the bolts will more than likely snap..

The rear box will have a interior light facing the front and one facing the rear. the plate that drops down will have switches for roof lights, driving lights...whatever anyone wants, can even put a fag lighter in there lol maybe could have done it slightly smaller, as there's more than enough...

550... not sure if for someone in the trade its a good price or not, but for me it was. :D had a look online and these brand new are £700+VAT, and this one is virtually brand new.. and when looking on eBay, could only find machines that would do one single application, shear, bend or roll, not...

first one I'm making for me... then I might start doing more now and again to pay for the machine, quite fancy playing around with different designs and stuff, have a few ideas in mind. Could also do custom jobs to people requirements, like a draw on the side, slightly different shape, etc...

I saw a rolling chassi on ebay the other day, do a search on ebay, might still be there. Seemed all legal, had V5 documents and all.. if you are going for a rolling chassi, make sure the numbers match the V5 and always buy it with a V5 or you might be buying the remains of a nicked landy..
