Sweet as - any trouble getting to the roof to work on it?
Its a great idea to not obstruct the heater channels like my trolley did - meant I had to paint them after the rest of the body. Nice work!

will put up sketch with dimensions when i find the ciggarette packet i drew it on it just sits in the mounting screw holes fronts are m12's so i
turned them down to 9.5 and rears are m8's and iturned them down to 6mm to fit straight in when i put the body on we were out by half a mm so i got
the 4llb gentle persuader and gave it a tap and she sat in beautifully and its rigid THe plan is to lower it when ready to paint as my painter is a
little maltese falcon and he doesnt want to put scaffolding in his boothto paint it

Hi
That looks great, I might visit woolies to get wheels for my trolley. Painters usually have problems bending over to paint cars, they should have no
problems with that setup.
