Cheers Bob I like to add a bit of background to the build with the history behind the vehicle , I think it's important to know what you are building.

A terrific choice for the GB Pete. Not seen one before so I will look forward to seeing how you tackle it. Looks like you have quite the following all ready so I shall snuggle up next and enjoy the ride. Good luck

Hi have done a bit more.
Had a look at the hull and as how our all knowing oracle/guru "doesn't really have anything important wrong with it".
Well I've put some of the missing details on.
Added 49 rivets per side and 10 bolt heads for the rear idler mount.
Measured out position for the rivets.
