Storage in these cabs can be a problem,but with a little thought and clever fabrication anything can be achieved! I look forward to seeing the finished product. It's been good fun watching your truck 'evolve' over the past few months. Good news,you folks seem to have'missed' a visit from Ike! Jock.

These welding sparks 'take no prisoners!' I am hoping to place the cab back on soon and I will post some more pics! If you ever come to "Jockland" bring some of your Florida sunshine! http://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/morar/morar/index.html This is a 'wee' place Mrs Jockbolter and I like to visit. Actually the Western Isles has had a reasonable summer this year. Scotland wouldn't look like it does if we had 80/90 degree summers all the time. Guess we'll just have to put up with the "liquid sunshine"  Thanks for the encouragement! Jock

Saying prayers for the Texans right now. We'll get Ike's diluted tropical storm winds and rain here in north Louisiana tomorrow.
