Got the frige . And I thought about a washer for shop rages . She gets up set when I wash them in the house . Come to think of it she gets a little up set when I throw my clothes that smell of old gas on the floor .

Hey, maybe he had that salamander heater going full blast and it got too warm in there?
Nice progress. I see that you covered up and fixed the 'escape hatch' in the back of the cab.
I was relieved to see that someone had a bigger hole in their cab than I did. Mine was only big enough to pass a loaf of bread through. Someone could vanish from that locked cab like Houdini before it was fixed.
Keep the pictures coming, looks great!
