It's been slow progress but the combination of work and weather has hindered it. Mustn't grumble about work though.... better than not having any!
I'll get some more pics up later. |

I've not had chance to touch the Penman at all for ages.
However, last week I spied a tub for sale on eblag. Chap is doing an overland conversion to his, so the tub was removed. Quick trip up to Droitwitch and I have a near pristene tub, absolutely dent free. Bit faded but it's going to get a coat of NATO green anyway. Far easier to swap the tub for a straight one than p!ss about with a hammer and the oxy torch chasing dents... it would end up like the car in Father Ted.... Click image to enlarge My old tub is for sale on here and a couple of other places as well. Would be ideal if you were going to hack one about to make a different trailer out of it, as a nice straight tub can fetch a good bit of money! |
