Default first part of the body frame finished

Saturday we finished the first part of the new body frame.
Old and new are now firmly connected again.
We will now proceed with sandblasting first and ad red primer, in the meantime
looking at reconstructing the roof.

Default Today the Body Frame went to the sandblaster

The body is on its way to the blaster, first of the rebuild is now done , I have the frame sandblasted to see where there's more work / welding to do.
The sheeting on the side of the reserve probably needs some attention and there's one more spot on the roof, otherwise I think she's pretty solid.
