since stevie and myself never got down for the estate last weekend, we are about to set off on a 850 mile round trip to collect her so will post some pics once we are back. Also going to check out 2 mumfords on the way back with a view to purchasing 1 of them, so will get some pics of them.

stevie's got himself a nice motor here with the a posts, hangers, jacking points etc solid and after a quick hit with the jet wash on the way back she is very good considering she has sat for nearly 18 years. No holes in the body just some surfce rust, another project for next year.

Looks solid enough. Is it missing the sill strips?
