Has Wade caught up with you yet ??? Looking at being over November if plans go accordingly.

Hi Grant,

yes, Wade has written a PM to me that he will come in August to North Germany, maybe I can meet him November is the worst month to come over, a lot of rain and cold But if you have no other choice it will be okay.

@16v_kid
780 pounds is really cheap, what's the catch


Cheers

Blacking kits give a really good finish, but the only thing that stops the parts from rusting is the oil bath you submerge them in on the last stage. Once the oil is gone, there's nothing to protect them and they rust again. (Like blacked HT nuts and bolts..)
