Default M8 restoration

Hi Colin,

Thanks for that. If only I could work half as fast as you can, I'd be very happy. Your project seems to be fair racing along! Most impressive.

Yes, the bullet holes are most likely from it being a range target. You are right, they could be good talking points and I am starting to think it mightn't be a bad idea now....

I haven't started on the M8 engine as yet. The reconditioner still has the scout car engine but has promised to get that done in the next few months so I can have the scoutcar ready for Warbirds over Wanaka 2018. If the dosh permits, I might get him to start on the M8 engine after that.
