Re: Martin's mi-STRESS, 1965 Long Fleetside C10 "Rebuild in ENGLAND"

Popped in to Martins place on the way home to drop of some storage solutions for him and to collect the 4 ton bottle jack I bought for my truck, as it has no jack.

While chattin, he mentioned that he would like to include the carport we built for his truck into his thread.

So I will post it here, copied directly from my thread.

In other news, I went over to help mate Martin to put up a car port frame yesterday, started at 0,5'C at 08.00 and turned into a good day.

We ended up working till about 19.00 which was about 2 plus hours after dark and then I went back today to help him get the roof on as well.

Bunch of pics of the process.







Front corner post was actually correct.








After dark we carried on with the neighbours spotlight







Today we got half the roof on when rain stopped safe play.



Of course the whole motivation for this roof build is so that Martin can work under some cover over winter prepping his truck.



And that pretty much brought another weekend to an end.
