You've restored a lot of vehicles. It's not uniusual for the media to blow something out of proportion, but it's nice to hear the real story for once.

It may sound strange, but do you know the ARN of the Mk.5 inter, if not, give me the chassis number and I should be able to help as i've been transcribing the Mk.5 ARN's lately for REMLR.com's Army Inter Chapter.

I don't know how internet savy he is, but if he visits our website he may even find a photo of his truck!

That chassis number is not one I have transcribed yet, but i'm not finished so it should appear in time. I'll make a note to contact you when his number comes up.

I choke on my words. my comments were written immediately after the event thinking that you may have been some re enactor that got it wrong with dangerous products. PLEASE ACCEPT MY APOLOGY, Having worked in the field but not in a public display capacity I am very wary of the product.

I do hope you have a quick recovery, we all get sidetracked, Again ANZAC I totally withdraw my remarks.

Hi Robin,
It is good to hear that you are back at work. The Committee and members of KVE thank you and your family for the Christmas card. It was good to read your account of the incident as there are always two sides to every story. Hopefully you will be able to make it to Corowa in March.
