Renovating the house as well G

Not any more, I gave up on that after the Water Board demolished the brick/tille garage and compromised the foootings under the house. I am using two rooms of the house as a "shed".

I have been trying to sell the Gordonson for a few months, all new bits on a 30 year old steel frame, with no joy.

I have been quoted a good price for sand blasting and powder coating, 2 colours no extra $, so which colours?

Eagles or Dockers?

Hi George

I would go for the Eagles colours, shouldn't have any problem getting some speed out of it

cheers
