    Nice bit of body repair Bob
    That looks quite a tidy body, wish we found them like that in england, there is usually more rust than steel
    Its aweful lonesome in the saddle since my horse died.

    Now come on Uncle Bob, a good squirt of high build primer and some spot putty will have that looking good in no time. Now where does this project fit in with the roadster?? And as Steve mentioned, we down here couldn't find a body in that condition ever.
    I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.
