More new bits arriving ;D











Also managed to get some of the casings polished and well pleased.
Not looking forward to the cam cover though :o

I can well imagine Paul. When trig has been polishing he comes in looking like he's been down a coal mine. Even with all the goggles / resperstors on, he seems to end up with black eyeliner which takes days to disappear. He doesn't really like polishing and saves it all up and does it for 8 hours at a time !!

That is a proper shine :)

Do you clear coat it to keep it like that, or just accept the need for shares in Solvol to keep it looking nice?

I think my choice of a black engined variant is down to my dislike of polishing! It looks so good when it's fresh......

Alan,
            I have a great teacher looking over my shoulder at everything I do on this and if it is not right is not backward at comming forward ;) ;) ;D
He may own up to being this person but his help/advice is invaluable.
