Too much has been going on so for the first time working on Buster in 3 months I got the first section of the outer sill & lower panel welded into place, now can't wait to get back in there,

Did I , I haven't seen it yet
Last Saturday I did a bit more welding & grinding on the sill, then in between cut out a section of the floor & welded in a new bit

8) Got my Funky Green load bed & fuel seperation surround all the way from Gerson yesterday, can't wait to take them to the unit to trial fit & then get some bloody work done
Pics later when I can get photobucket to load

Are you using the splitscreen loadbed they sell? is it the same?

I asked them ages ago if they where the same, Chris said he would ask Gerson, never had a reply even after I sent a reminder email

 

[BO JANGLES]

I specified it was for a '68 model Early Bay , is there any difference between the Split & Early Bay cargo floor ???

I don't think there is, I send them a photograph of my Bay loadbed with all the dimensions on it, but they never got back to me to confirm.

Although to be honest, I'm using some marine ply for mine until such time as it goes for a full respray.

 

[BO JANGLES]

when I get down to the unit & try them I'll post a pic & confirm the fit

 

[BO JANGLES]

Photobucket sorted, so heres what turned up the other day

I couldn't wait very long before I squeezed into the unit to try
them

Very ,very pleased, Gerson although a little slow was really straight up , no rubbish excuses just appologies & now they've arrived the fit & thickness of metal & quality is really impressive. 8) 8)

8) that load bed looks amazing. want one

looks so much better original than covered over with ally plate. do they do the upright panel that goes behind the cab too?

mine has hardboard riveted over and i suspect its rotten as hell underneath but i darent open that can of worms yet!

cant wait to see this finished.top work so far.

 

[BO JANGLES]

Thanks mate, yes they do the upright panel, luckily I've got a cut of that section from another one

 

[moler]

Looking really good 8)

Schofields have the upright panel, just bought one for mine

& folded the outward facing seam, then joggled the panel, welding in tomorrow :wink:
