Just about there now, gave it a covering underneath with waxoyl and a quick polish on the outside ready for the mot tomorrow.
Then a final valet and it will be ready and looking for a new home

Only thing I would change is the floor of the flat bed. I would have used wooden boards instead of solid metal panel. Just to make quick access from above by taking the boards out. Timber is cheap and very easy to replace and they won't rust (just rot). That's just my preference of course. Well done guys!

Hi guys thanks for the comments they are very encouraging
I think the medic could soon be promoted to chief surgeon after his sterling effort on this one.
Regards the bed It’s been made to be removed with 4 nuts and bolts then it’s off, it leaves the rear light bar on so easy access for maintenance
Many thanks and be safe
