Not much been a happenin'......

.......at Casa Bodger of late.

The past few days have been miserable due to early morning rain/mist and a few nights ago there was a nice thunder storm with some good sized hail thrown in for good measure. The golf ball sized hail went through tree branches leaving a blanket of leaes on the ground below and in some yards, flattened tall grass and weeds, very surreal looking at times.

At the moment it's dry and coolish which is nice other than it also being damp. Reminds me of being home in the Midlands during this time of year.

On the jigsaw puzzle known as Vicky parts have still been coming in as they are found. Managed to get a rear grab rail just a few days back along with a rear brake rod with adjuster.

Also got a NOS fiberglass left side panel for a good price which was a stroke of luck. I know, I know, you're thinking "Silly boy already got a metal panel not long ago" and you're right.

But even though it's for a B44, from looking at it more closely and by dry fitting it to the frame, it didn't quite look right if you know what I mean.
Just seemed out of place compared to this one.

So anyways, the hunt for parts is still on-going and in no particular order, just getting them as they come available and if the price is right.

The next thing besides parts is to get a compressor and then to knock together a basic lumber and plastic sheeting paint "room" for outside so the frame and as many other painted parts can be painted.

Then if all goes well, some assembly can get started at least instead of still having a largish pile of scrap metal.....err....parts lying about doing nothing other than gathering dust.


Until the next time.....toodle pip!
