The 'twin cab 'hearse look'


Well,

One thing about having a twin can and not having the gates finished
is that is sorta difficult to carry anything on the back cos you can't strap
it down!

So I made a coupla rails today so I can strap stuff on the back. I'll clean
them up and get them chromed...

Leo is available for funerals...

regards

Hey Rob,

Have you actually got the gates and no time, or have no gates at all?

(I still have your box here mate! :o )

I have leo's original gates - they're really rusty and stuffed (like the rest of
him used to be) - they take an *enormous* amount of time to fix!

The hearse rails were a one day solution to the problem
of not being able to carry anything on the back!
