I spoke to nice guy called Graham from Mid Coast Volkswerks today and he said he would keep a lookout for me...aside from scouring through ebay and the trading post, local paper that's about as far as I have gotten so far but no luck.

Hi Ray.
I HAVE seen it. It's parked at the bottom of our back lane in Sawdy :) Hahaha...I bet that shocked you! Is there a way I can get your phone number to have a chat? I can't find a PM function anywhere on this forum.
