Guest Guests Posted 03/02/07 03:44 PM Posted 03/02/07 03:44 PM You've done an amazing job - well done!Along the way you've pretty well convinced me that I need a BF F6 (I don't have the time, patience, inclination or mechanical aptitude to tackle what you've done)Hmmm - Now if only I can convince the Minister for War that it's absolutely necessary.
