windscreen now fitted,
was about to fit the silver/black Rostyles and a guy stopped at the tyre shop with a beetle and offered me 3x what i paid for them , paint included so they were sold.
took the profit and bought some satin black rattle can paint and turned the gold rims black
now just the new dash to be fitted and the door seals. then a good clean and a polish next week.
then it will be okay for a daily delivery bakkie.

Nice. Could you take some pics of the load-bay & lid operation? I'm curious.
