The large bulbous mudgaurds on the front of the Mudlark caused a lot of light reflection, not a good idea when trying to hide, so they were changed to the extra flat and narrower style of the Champ. Note also the quaint touch on the back gaurds, Spats!.Must have been a bugger to put chains on.
great photos
Rich.
Ha! I was wondering when you'd spot it Rich!
