Not a lot of progress made due to the fact i've bought a 4x4 that lets say was not running perfect but due to this i got for a song, started to remove the engine to replace the piston rings and hopefully will be able to move on quickly.

Did get a chance to finish the screen mount and it looks the business, now looking at ways to age the look of the ally used to make the mount.

Turned some nuts from ally, these are what hold the screen to the ally mount. Made to the same diameter as the lugs on the outside ally mount which helps the whole look of the screen mount.

Rear view of the nut in place on the inside of the screen.

Made a cover mirroring the shape to hide the center join, the screws are temporary for now as i think i will pop rivet the mount in place once the paint job is finished.

Screen in place with the protective film still in place, the ends have been left slightly longer as i am toying with idea of may be machining a couple of end brackets but will live with how it is for now.


Well that's it for now see you all soon.
