It would have been nice to use the torro wheels Carl , they are a little bigger too which would have been more inline with the diameter of the original truck wheels , but never mind I'm happy enough with what I've used now and as you say they are pretty good value too :thumbup:

Cheers, Lee.

The elasticated tie downs for the canvas cover have now been added which makes it easily removable, hopefully get it primed over the weekend weather permitting ready for painting,

Well Carl you know I like to use whatever useful stuff I come across and these are no exception :D I had an old small assortment screw case compartment box that I no longer used which had just the right shape angled lid on it that I was looking for so I chopped it up :haha:
