Yeah if i remember correctly i spent over 4 grand that day at Bergs.
Id have to check the recipe.
But that was back in 1991 i think ,when i was over there and i bought this kit. So with freight and duty and inflation,possibly would cost double that now. I doubt however you would get the same quality.
But i will take a reasonable offer.

Thanks
