i had a week to use the lift and shed to myself so things got going

it needed front panel changed as it was butchered up in japan to fit the 15 front along with a rusty battery tray and tub
the new front i got was cut a little short of where i was hoping so had to add in a piece looks rough here but i tidied it up as i went (learn by doing it they say)
