Paul tells me the end caps for the tailgate lock are in the post from Franceland, so thanks in advance for those Sir.
Not much going on on the Pop build over Christmas & New Year, but Taz & I were in the local saddlery suppliers yesterday & I picked up this pair of black leather straps for a bargain 7 quid. About 4 & a half feet long by an inch wide. Planning to strap the old Pop fuel tank down to it's mounting stand in the bed of the truck with them. It'll be bolted in place from underneath so the straps are just for show. The tank won't be fitted until after the SVA test anyway.
I've come to a bit of a deal with Loony. He's going to have my Triumph Speed Triple bike in return for some cash & services rendered on the Pop. I've hardly ridden it all year & he wants it, but can't raise the full value in cash. Sorted. So he should be putting in some after-work hours on the Pop bodywork. This is kinda a joint build between us, so I'm happy to trust his judgement & let him carry on in my absence.

Don't think I'll be delivering the bike just yet though.

Received the tailgate lock end-caps in the post from AfghanMan today. All the way from France. Shame I can't get to Loony's workshop to fit them because of the snow!
Thanks Paul.
They were out of focus when I took them out of the envelope -honest.  Tongue

I always used to read the write-ups in magazines & wish they'd go into more detail about the builds. So when I started my various projects I set out to show as much info as I possibly could. Not that I'm an expert at all, but if it helps or inspires one person then I've done my job.  Grin
