Finally some good weather today, so I was able to roll the Pop a few feet out of the workshop, (several other vehicles outside the door, so couldn't move it any further). Loony's been painting a VW Beetle bodyshell for the past week -not compatible with me throwing grinding sparks about. Now he's done I could cut out the driver's side floor panel, which we tack welded in place for the SVA test, & replace it with a sturdier bolt-in version. A little fettling & it should fit fine.
The pick-up bed seems to have become a general purpose storage area & picnic table!

The green paint Loony mixed up. He brush painted it on a few areas to see how it looks. Definitely needs to be paler, but I like it.

 Grin Not mo-jo'd out -still there most afternoons. Just not a lot to show at the moment. I'm still working on the drivers side floor panel. A spot of welding & the mounting holes drilled & tapped into the chassis & it'll be ready to paint. Then there's just the footwell panel behind the pedals to re-work.
I've got to turn the Pop round in the workshop in the next couple of days so I can get to the front end. The front axle needs to come out, ready to deliver to my brother's workshop in Wiltshire on Sunday for Tony to fit the kingpin bushes.
