SD you gonna have to give us more time, also live around Stellenbosch so a BBQ would have been in order. Nice ride ... but have to agree with Dutch ... you cant sell that !! Export it to us here in RSA, if you have to sell it. We will find it a loving home !
Now where was that bolt from again ...?
And do I need to weld that together?

If we have the time and money, wich are two big isues, we´ll be back in rsa within a year or so.

Hmmm, if i still have it in my possesion, maybe i should drive it to rsa.... an adventure for life. :D
