Re: Merc rebuild
Fitted the stone deflectors and reinforcing angles to the side of the tipper body.
 Made the tailgate and hinges.   I made it so that it can be easily removed.  Attached a Wedico diesel tank,  and made a battery box and air tanks.  Lastly, attached a towing hitch for a future trailer build.

Re: Merc rebuild
I have been trying to get some sort of a latch mechanism for the tailgate that could be operated remotely, so after many different designs this is what i have come up with.
    And a couple of quick videos to show it in operation. Sorry about the quality, i was forced to use my phone. I am using a servo tester to operate it at the moment so it is a bit slow. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPRQ-ElOOek http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNYxQCnXRUY
