Tony, you wanna do some work on my truck?
I've got a bit of welding needed but I'm soooooo lacking in motivation at the moment
It's looking brilliant by the way! _________________

Lookin good tony
That Jag looks a bit too tidy for the chop... That shape was my favorite of all the XJs
I hardly ever post on that other forum any more, just can't cope with all the bickering! There's still a decent pot of knowledge and experience to dip into there though so it does come in handy occasionally. I didn't see what caused the upset Tony, just saw your "I'm off" thread, they'll miss your wisdom on there mate! Glad I still know where to find you _________________
