Just had confirmation that Billy Boy is able to host the van at his premises in Northampton, thanks again for your offer of assistance mate.

Just waiting for contact from Pete at Reading so we can arrange to move the van and confirm a weekend for the next build.

Once again, thanks to all the contributors and all involved in the project,

Better takes lots of pictures because you will not/cannot take pictures at the factory.I think there may well be some press style prints available though.
