Went to the shops to get more roasting tins, i'm sure the woman behind the counter thought i was mad:crazy:
Here some pics:-









The tins are a bit thinner than i would have hoped so am going to have to strengthen it up inside.
Not bad for a first go should look okay with some windows and a drop of paint.
Then its off to get it beaten up!

Getting there!

More Progress!
It's in Primer ready for paint!
Has taken me about 5hours to build this body today.
Its not perfect by a long shot but its for a beater and a bit of a laugh so i'm not to worried.
Windows to add next to stiffen up the top and then paint and detail it.
I'll stop rabbiting now here's a couple of shots.

I think this thing will get the most realistic rock rash any of us have ever seen. Great idea. You should make another pickup the same body style as the 4Runner. I know I'd want one.

The body damage reminds me of the current damage on Tim Hardy's Samurai.
