Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

All the front would be easy to replicate as the bends are all in a single plane, behind the driver is a bit more tricky.

But they do (did):quote:
John Haynes OBE wrote and published his first book, on building an Austin 7 Special, whilst he was still at school in
1956.
He wrote two more 'Special' builders' manuals while doing his National Service in the RAF.
