well where do i start today, got snowed off today as there was a decent fall of snow over night and pretty much all morning, so thought id spend the day in the garage,

but with so many jobs to do i just didnt know where to start or what to do first, so i made a brew and though ill just do what i can manage on my own.

 

first job i thought id get the roof spacers and nuts and bolts finished off so thats all done now :good::good:

second job i thought id get the sides on, but instead of just sitting one there just to see what it looked like i thought id better do it properly,

first i had to find the correct bottom seal, they sat in place ok but i thought a bit of spray glue would help so got them on and stuck down :good::good:

and last but not least i thought id get the glass in, when i realised id ruined my old rear door glass with the grinder i was a bit gutted as it was the original tinted glass, so i ordered another one from paddocks, got it ages ago but never opened it today, got a nice surprise when i did.

it was tinted same as all the other windows i have, not mention of it in the add and it looked clear in there photo :yahoo::yahoo:
