    Is that going to ride there while driving? You might want to make a sheetmetal cover for the front you can secure. I've had my 9 drawer In the back of my service van occasionally rattle a drawer open. That would be most sucky in your case.
     
  4. there will be an 1/8 x 1 bar over the drawers with a lock at the bottom haven't got that far yet. But thanx.

    The injector has been put on hold as I now have a project to complete for grandson, but I try not to forget anything Kjell but the ol memory banks are slowing down a tad........
    And yes Dale I plan to have a blast, now need to call Buddy tomorrow to see if he can make it up.......
