thanks anthony , im guite happy with the looks now if only i could keep it running without breaking something!

it is dual fuel , the LPG filler is at the rear on the drivers side and the petrol filler is just infront of the flare on the drivers side too.
it has twin 45Litre LPG tanks where the petrol tank normally is and it has a Long range petrol tank down the passenger side

im planning on getting rid of the petrol and putting a 100L gas tank in the cabin as a secondary to give me about 180L of gas
