You've not mentioned your Pop lately Shauny -which means you're either miles ahead of us, or miles behind.  Grin
About time we had an update ain't it?

The cr*p weather & various other factors mean I haven't achieved anything on mine for a couple of weeks now. Fully intended to spend a couple of hours on it after work today -then my Royal Mail van broke down half way round my delivery this morning. The Post Office have rented a fleet of small vans while they re-shuffle the delivery system & the RAC deal with any breakdowns. So I had to wait for them to arrive, then wait for my depot to send out a replacement van, then carry on delivering. Didn't get finished till 4pm after leaving home at 5 in the morning & definitely wasn't in workshopping mood.

Here's mine so far Shaun. How's it compare to yours?
Loony was having a bit of a vehicle re-shuffle at the workshop today. Although it was Sunday, Taz was working, so I nipped over from Guildford for a couple of hours. Did a little bit of work on the tailgate inner skin, but took the opportunity to drag the Pop out of the shadows & into the daylight for a proper look at how things are going.

After working on it up close in the shop for so long, it was good to be able to stand back & view it from a distance. The swage line on the doors doesn't line up with the top of the pick-up bed. The body sits level to the ground, but the bed is slightly raked because of the taller rear tyres.

Not a big problem, but precisely why it pays to wheel your projects out of the workshop & take a good look at them from a new perspective if you can. The body's just tacked to the chassis at the moment, so it was easily fixed by grinding off the rear tacks & lifting the back end up by an inch.
That's better.

One of the VW camper van repair panels we're using to create the bed sides, clamped in place.
