Here's how it finished up, showing the new door and batteries/tool box.



She was put on the back of a truck and carted away to Hamilton for certification on Wednesday.

So far we've heard nothing back, I'm told it could take three or four days to get it all sussed.

Different strokes I suppose; because the fella from New Plymouth that we've had doing certification for us on other vehicles took only three or four hours...and the mechanicals in this build are all bog standard factory manufactured parts, there's essentially nothing apart from the engine and gear-box mounts that's 'home built'.
The chassis, axles, springs, brakes etc are all standard 2000 Chev lwb dually ute.
