      That is absolutely stunning.
      We restored a classic car this summer for our wedding. It's a lot of work isn't it!

        Thanks Charlie, It's certainly a labour of love but so enjoyable from my point of view.

              I restored an old Humber bike, had rod breaks.

              Someone nicked it :sad:

                I want to keep it Beckie, however I have two other projects queuing up and space is at a premium!!
                But I'll be holding on to her for dear life and won't be in any rush to sell on.
