I picked it up......... on behalf of Jim Douglas and its the best find ever! Took 3 hours to get to Bob's place at Hargreaves - a lovely little place near Hill End. Another 3 hours home - best trip ever!

Bob and his wife are the nicest couple you'll ever meet. Thanks a million!! Jim is chuffed!!]

It will cost $600.00 for the panels to be fixed, an 1835 motor ready to drop in, then ready for rego. Inside is immaculate.
Just some people are luckier than others.....:rudolf:rudolf

Cheers everyone, Mick
