Weather was OK today but it'll get worse.

I need leaf springs, pair for the rear.

That air box was from down south because they were doing a deal but postage would get a bit silly for massive metal bars.

Talking to someone other day and supposedly if you get your truck classed as a specialised vehicle you don't need an MOT.

Know out about that? I hope.its true, as that's one less thing to sort out, would just get it checked over

Need to look back in to that at some point, did have it all planned around an M1 IVA but I've also read you can convert to motorhome which gives a less stringent MOT (and cheaper) for just a letter and some photos. When it's ready to drive I'll work out where to take it!
