been on here a while now but mainly for tips and tricks, anyway thought id chuck up probably the shortest build thread ever as i thought some of you may like to see.

so ive been waiting patiently for my new caddy to arrive since selling the silver one a few months back... well it finally arrived last friday and within a few hours after being delivered to Benfield it was PDI'd, left completely unwashed with all stickers and transport wax still present and untouched, so with just 6.4 miles i set off to the detailing bay which resulted in a few extra miles...

Image

anyway it stayed like that locked away until monday when i got going with bits and bobs to get it ready for work

first thing was to sort out the business end, the guy who bought the silver caddy had no use for the racking so that was kept but i needed a little tarting up.

pics speak better than words... here we go

how it started
Image
Image

bought carpet and sized up the ply lining
Image

that went in
Image

and so did the shelves
Image

then outside for its first ever wash and to remove the transport wax

Image
Image

some important family duties took up most of tuesday so that leads us onto today

thought i'd try something a little different than the usual..... which tbf i dont think turned out to bad
