    For any of you who've noticed, the front cupboard has the corner cut out of it, and angled back so that the front passenger seat can be leant backwards. this needs to happen so the high backed porsche seat can lean back enough so the hammock pole can slot into its cup on the b post.....
     
  11. Oh, and here's the money shot - GOODBYE Q PLATE :) HELLO AGE RELATED..........woohoo....... O0

  17. Is it a numberplate that says ten quid on it behind the drivers seat?
     
  18. Amazing, way to go. Loos like the set up will be a perfect home away from home for the season. Really like the way you've cut the doors from the same wood , going to be great.
