Got some very strange looks today!
« on: January 22, 2014, 09:52:56 pm »
Having spent most of my spare time over the last year or so rebuilding the cab on my U1000 I delivered it to my mates workshop today ready to put the top coats of paint on over the weekend, this involved driving it several miles the other side of town with no glass in the cab, no doors on the cab, no mudgaurds and no back body on :o
Best bit was going past the primary school just as the kids came out, even the lollipop lady just stood and gawped, she usually jumps out in front of any vehicle.
As i pulled onto the roundabout everyone else just seemed to stop. And then stare, suits me I can just trundle on by :D
I will post a picture when the paint is on the cab, then it is the mammoth task of refitting all glass and rebuilding the doors.

Looking good, you've done a really tidy job of the bits I've seen. Trouble is you're not going to know what to do with yourself when it's done. To beat the boredom why don't I bring mine up and you can make a start on that?... :D
