Roof detached. Had to cut through cross member above rear door as couldn't get roof off it. Bliddy sealant is v. strong. Lots of tidying up to do once roof is off and on the ground.

No, I'm a human not a monkey and like sleeping close to the ground! :lol:
I have the upper bed and will sell it.
The 'upstairs' will be for storage in a style yet to be decided. The roof is gash inside so it'll need lining to say the least.

Bliddy things are multiplying!

Plan to take best of both to make one good one.

It's got the original CRT telly still. Can't see myself keeping that. But does have a decent inner skin.

To date, that makes three asking. :lol:
Ask me again after July 2013 when I've finished and the spare parts pile can get disbanded.

there's a bloke who does fibreglass moulding who's after one to pattern, not sure if it was on here or the yard, but well worth talking to him I reckon especially as you now have the interior panels to copy too

Nice pics!
No progress on this recently. I've revised my delivery date to SP11 as SP10 is only 4 weeks ago and I'll never get it done in time. Ah well, at least I've got lots to keep me busy.

No more from me. I've got another roof to detach from the shell, but won't be starting that until mid-Aug at the earliest. Will take more pics then.
