Hopefully we can direct some attention back here;

You're doing an amazing job to this ute, I wish I could weld like that. I would have been to scared to even start the project with that hole in the tray.
Keep us posted on the progress. I really look forward to seeing the outcome.

yeah it has gone off track a bit, theyll sort it out between them selves eventually lol, cheers mate, when we bought the ute i never really thought much about the hole other than to fix it, i havent got any recent pictures, ive just started cutting the hq cowl bonnet lines of and welding it hz ones, i wanted to leave it but dad and the pannel beater, said just to do it, so ive done one side and the other will be done on the weekend, ill keep the hq bonnet lines( the bit i cut out) in the shed, just for a rainy day

The HQ bar you're chasing, is that to put on the ute? I've got a full length bar that came off a van somewhere but I'm in Canberra which might be a bit far for you. Got any good HQ sedan bootlids (without the hump)?
