Work has progressed to the fitting planks stage, with the straps holding the body and chassis together now in position. The interior is still in grey undercoat / primer, although the floor planks have had an initial coat of floor paint - and will get several more for additional protection. View of the North - platform - and West sides. With the matchboard profile and external framing, extra sealant will be used to prevent water ingress between the frames and planks, this trapped water situation contributed to large areas of rotten woodwork.
