Lots of horrible crap in the bottom ....

Most of the crap probably brought into the cab by the family of mice living in the cab:

Here's the power brick:

Only one way to get this cab clean. Bucket of bleach and a stiff brush:

Resting after the ordeal, and soaking up a few rays:

Feel very lucky to have this cab whilst the side art is available.

Side art going on:

I know the art isn't everyone's cup of tea. But I quite like the way it ties the cab together. Colours in the marquee, control panel, and the monitor overlay repeated in the side art:

I think I'm going to call this one finished. There are a few things I'm not happy with, and will go back and redo at some point. Is any resto ever truly finished? I'm sure some are, but none of mine ....
