Hey Uncle Donut................You'll keep!!!! .....
Thanks for reminding me about that bloody gullwing door Des; I had almost erased that little incident from my cerebral hard-drive (or is that "floppy drive"??).....but oh no, you have to dredge-up old wounds........bloody mongrel!!!!! LOL

Anyway, can't happen again as I have installed sophisticated electronic monitoring system to alert me to "door open" (consisting of a $4- push switch and a $10- buzzer) circuit!! haha

Very neat job Lyn, Al has taught you very well!! ;-)

Cheers

Very nice, very nice.

A tad different from when I last saw it. (LOL)

I can't tell from the pics whether or not you have colour coded powder coated it or left it as polished ali.

Whats the 'finish' options offered/available with this 'accessory'

Hi Richard

the box is one those ones...it's a Bull Body Box from WA, Al had one shipped across to Vic and he's done a few alterations on it to suit the cruiser.

You could call it the Black Minda LOL

Hi Lyn,

Looks good.

How did Al go with the central locking??

Good to see that the Darkside plates stayed on as well LOL

I am still waiting for the certificate for Darkie so I will keep in touch.

Looks sensational Lyn,

Now what it really needs to finish it off is.......

I'll email you a proposition, and no it does not involve me dressing up as Little Bo Peep.

I like your thinking Jim,

I await some pics of your proposition, I want to get a lift off box for Darkie and need some sort of drawer system in it.

Mr and Mrs Al,

Nice looking box, now all you can do is fill it with stuff, go somewhere and get it all dirty (on the ourside). Have fun.
