nightmare13 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Thought it was time to stop fiddling with other people's and customers vehicles and I should get myself a vehicle, ideally I wanted something British, but I've always liked the Jimmy and quite fancy pulling up to a QL or something and dwarfing it! The truck that I have got has the workshop body on the back which I plan to make into a living quarter, with onboard generator and water, perfect for war and peace and the other shows I go to. I've got a few other quirky ideas, but they will have to wait. The whole thing is stripped down at the moment, fully sandblasted and ready to be reassembled, as I do all of this as a full time job I am having to put it on the back burner and do it in my free time!

nightmare13 Posted March 1, 2015 Author Share Posted March 1, 2015 I've had the back body low loadered to a lock up where I can work on it on solid ground, it was only then I realised how big the whole thing is! It's as wide as a modern lorry! No wonder she has ten wheels! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starfire Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Looking good! Please keep updating as you make progress. Cheers, Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfy Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Great first vehicle Tom looks a very clean basis for a restoration. How about a nice kitchen in the back.....not that I would want the output of that at all the future shows to come or should we all be worried about the 'quirky ideas' in store? Look forward to progress. Carleton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_bish Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Very nice, nice to see a workshop version over the more common cargo type Not sure a GMC dwarves a QL, my QL is parked next to my REO and the cab is much higher up on the Bedford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
