No dis respect to the ST Uncle F but are you feeling allright? Your van is minted out of it's tree as the Chief Clansman up here would say?

Beauty with brains behind it!

Well you are going to be busy Frank! But Phil's ST looks in pretty good shape! Did you get the rear valence with it :) :wink:

Sad to see the van go but what plans has Phil got for it?
Will it be re-sign written for Ireland?

Is this the only real ST left?

Well I didn't think you would ever go through with it but I think you have made a good choice! !

Welcome home S/T! ! It's going to look fantastic when it is all done up properly! :wink:

I've sussed you Frank - you don't like Marinas do you, you only like working on them?

Seriously Frank - that van was a beauty, but if it didn't hold your attention any more it was time to go to someone else who would love it. Thoroughly approve of the swap (if swap it was), you can count pukka STs on the fingers of one hand - or even one finger.

Anyone know how many ST cars are out there? Got to be the most select sub-group going.

As long as the Mumford isn't the next thing on the chopping block! Then we will all know that Frank has left the land of the sane :lol: Well as sane as any Marina owner can be....
