Hi Tony, at last the truck is in the body shop, I have uploaded a couple of photos for you to look at and il upload some more when it's done, by all accounts the old panels are difficult to remove but other than that it seems pretty straightforward. I should have her back by the weekend il keep you posted. Paul

Also I should have mentioned it has been repaired before, obviously not very well,
