Not easy mate a lot of work over time. Mind you having my own business for 25 years restoring things like this helps, paid £300 for this when I got it.

And this is where I got to when I broke various bits of myself July 2010, 4 discs in my back, fixed them then snapped a bicep tendon. It has sat in the garage ever since.

This year we continue!!!

Glad to hear you are fixed now, and the mojo is back,

I'm looking forward to see the progress on this as there is some really nice work so far.

So come on, get cracking. ;)
