nigel 1,876 #10 Posted December 24, 2015 looking great paul you need to pull it outside for a full photo shoot now to realy show it off, cos you would be hard pushed to find a better one but what you realy need is another one in oily rag condition to put next to it at the shows, it just so happens .... 3 pmackellow, meadowfield and Triumph66 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
