      Todays work, fit the pedals, fit and decorate the truck floor, and decorate the inside of the camper shell, needing sun glasses as will the guests!



      Just need a few more decal strips to finish.

        It just gets better, looks proper groovy. Where did you get the 'steel' sheet floor?

            Thanks Spree the diamond plate flooring comes in an A$ sheet size from Evergreen/Plasticard.

              No I think it had a full cover over the truck bed with two surfboards. Search Images of Dodge Deora on Google.

                today, build and fit slant 6 engine..................

                Test space around the engine with body fitted................



                I may have to re-route the exhaust exit so as not to dis-colour or burn the surfboard.

                    There's some fine detail on the motor fella. Really precise looks good

                      Thanks Spree, I've had a lot of work around the house I hope to carry on with this one, in the next few days.

                        The last few pics to finish off this build.....
                        The extended exhaust ...............

                        The exhaust exit, in the middle in front of the back axle...............


                        I scanned the Deora logo and printed off a few decals of various sizes......

                        The new surfboard I made for this build with a new decal................

                        My major mistake was to chrome the windscreen surround, too fragile to remove, plus the drop down front door with a new decal and the headlight/bumper unit in place...........

                        The completed body chassis unit with the new board in the hanger.............

                        The completed build pics to come.

                                That is one very unusual vehicle indeed, I like it. Found a photo of the front.
