The panel work below the emergency door opening and the beading to the left of the opening  has been fitted .  The lino on the  floor at the edge of the opening  was rotten so this was cut back about 6″ and replaced with new lino which is a bit thinner, so I faced it with some diamond embossed tread plate and painted it to match the golden ochre on the floor. The cast step edge trim was derusted , primed and reinstalled.  This needs another coat of paint o protect it properly. The wheel housing cover which was previously poorly fitted was undone and jacked into place and new fixings used.  The cab step had a final coat of paint; all that needs to be done now is to paint the handbrake lever and pedals.  A start has been made on making up the replacement fuel pipes in preparation for refitting the cab floor.
