Hi all mini folk, Just thought I'd send a link to my mini pickup project site. Bought the project as "abandoned" from a young man here in Denmark. Check it out and follow the progress at www.rustrep.com (under projects) Just ordered around 40 panels from M-Machine this week so waiting for them to be couriered over from England.

Original inner wing/post has holes in the 'a' post for internal hinges, but the replacement is external hinges.
