Thanks Lil Im trying to talk dad into getting a pair as I have let him have the light blue one but money is short at the moment for him so im thinking of buying him a pair for fathers day

We are going for a bare metal respray this time because when we resprayed mine we only rubed it back with sandpaper and now its come out with crows feet so im looking at a near future respray too dad and i have both got 8 litres of paint each so that should cover us for awhile

Nice work, good to ee I'm not the only one going bare metal respray/rebuilds...

Work and Uni commitments have been taking priority lately, but hope to have it painted by the end of the month, and back on the road for Christmas, as Mine's currently an empty shell.
