Thanks for replying to the questions Chris. I've had to replace my modem so as to get back on line. Yes it is a 66 as Chris says, and as with all old cars needs some TLC, but very minor. The first thing I need to do is source some new bumper brackets and then go and visit Barry so I can roll the rear bumper back to its original shape. It has taken a knock so time in its life.

As you guys have noticed The DarkSide has not been invited to the car park for a while.... In fact I think The DarkSide has been banned for the car park at HR's place......

Like I said at the braai it so sweet and I can see the 360 deg smile when you picked up the bug...
