Fascinating though isn’t it!

Those pics remind me I’ve got loads of tubular rivets and stainless fork ends out in t’garage.
Must sort them out and get them on ebay.
I would be interested if you want to sell them, might save some fees

Hello Graham
James de Ruyter , you could contact him directly.
Regards,
Herbert
Crikey Herbert – is James still around then – has he still got his T-6G project? Has some dealings with him a few years back then his comms dried up!
Think Benno was trying to contact him too.
