Typing in capitals is called shouting, Luvverly sorry lovely isn't it, lolI recently picked up a nice '74 Commando that hasn't been on the road since 1989.

BTW why do you always type in capitals?
finally dug out a couple of pics of the Ford T bucket I had for 13 years ,sold it to a mate who made me an offer I couldn't refuse,I'd settle for one of these old Chryslers.
