Looks good. Bet it sounds even better.

Is it getting sign written on for the garage. Or is it going to be the advert in that it will be one of the few cars in the family that can run for more than a few months at the time hehe

Is it the one that was for sale in Kirkcaldy? If so,I looked at it a couple of weeks ago. I thought the driver's side had been painted. Low miles if I remember.
