Hi All not sprayed just yet . But Ive started setting up ready . Metal tracks on the way ( thanks Dave :thumbup: ) Ive got all the skirt mounting hangers fitted now . Im not putting on the locking block on the top hook on the mounting hangers just a little to fiddly ? :/
Just a few picts with skirts on I realise there probaly not on in the correct order . I just put them on quickly for the photo . Once the mesh grilles are on ( thanks Dave :thumbup: ) Its going to be striped down and sprayed , at last :/
