cheers mate! nice to keep getting compliments on my efforts! i was driving down a few B roads today, and thought "what the hell was i thinking? how can i think of selling this!" lol

[DaveJH]

Did you end up selling her? I hope not! I've been reading this thread from the start - very impressed. You've done a great job
