Default havin a blast

Thanks Phil, Robert and Bob for the information I'll give one a try, I like the idea of doing as much of the work yourself,doesn't necessary end up the cheapest but you get the satifaction when you stand back to say you done it. As for the neighbours (suburbs) I might get rid of the molasses setup which might get rid of "a funny smell from something" as they say

Thank you Keith and great to catch up.
The blitz restoration has taken a U turn, I am not building a custom tray now but have purchased various parts for a more genuine rebuild. More to come when travel arangements have been finalised. I have to fly under the radar at the moment as this involves a border raid
Thanks RC.
