    One final coat to put on and it’s done for now.

    Wired up the side lights still want to put lights right under the rtt to light up the cargo area.

    That was fast! I like it 'hidden' in the enclosure.

    Super nicely done as always Tim!

    I didn’t like the fact nothing sold was behind it. Didn’t want the 16ga getting fatigued by that tank
