Coming along nicely.
Took a while hey? Hope to see some more progress soon.
Mine's been standing for the last 3 months or so too :( Busy getting it back together now so that I can at least get some summer driving in!

Hi Snoeckie

Whatever happened to the Kestrel Bakkie Buggy body? I've been looking for one for a very long time now.
Cheers
