Danny and Chris . . .

 The Boys have been hard at this big bucket for a couple of days, throwing a bit of metalwork into the cabin to fill the gaping hole above the trans and filling in the firewall. Interior metal mods are now complete and then the gents turned their attention to the big tub out back. I use the word 'gents' fairly loosely in this instance. . . hehehe.
First of all the tub was removed and all welding and grinding was comleted with the tub mounted into a custom made jig just for this tub so that she remained perfectly square. Then, as per the pic, the side wheel arches were replaced after carefull measurement and then drilling the tub walls for nut and bolt mounting of the wheel arches so that they can be individually removed at any time. Smart thinking that!, most panel shops would just weld them on and then you're stuck with them, this way if you geta little ding or scrathes, you can remove the panel and work away on it till your hearts content and then just screw it back on. . .
