Hi Mike - trying to upload some pics.

Here is the welding bottles relocation/resize and the trailer board stowage/telescoping beacon post ('T' piece and beacon bases yet to be fab'd) before I removed the hard cab. Soft top awaiting install, however minor hick-up to progress being rot to the compound sections in the cab under the door shuts.

I tried to add multiple pics but kept getting "failed" message.

Will try to get pics of modified rear steps, Holmes gear sub frame, TAC plate holders, Hollebone and spade stowage, transfer lever extension, external lockers, marker lamp guards etc., all things so far fabricated.

I have gotten some lamps from down under - though the cab side turn repeaters are so far illusive.

The paint on the trailer board, board support and the telescoping beacon post is the end colour that you sent me the official paint chip/card of.
Currently, I am doing all the mods and some protective painting as I go, but overall paint will be done later.
