I wish that when I did my last MK2 I had stuck with my original plan to flat front and arch it, had I done that I would still own it, instead I listened to what others said and built it back to standard then sold it.

      Oh, we still have the little grey MK1 but shell number 3 is being picked up as we speak, bit of work on for the grinder over the next few months ..........
      Arguably you can't beat flat front & arches, but personally i'm glad you listened to "others" then sold it to me......your workmanship is A1......keep up the good work.

                        Arched MK2 next, works colours I think for the same lad who owns the bubble, the grey MK1 will be sold on shortly after a few items have been reserved for the bubble shell.

                        cheers, Paul

                              Really nice work there mate!
                              The shell is a cracker!...is it a british shell?
                              We got a mk2 from malta like that, but its nice to see a mk1 in that nick...before being restored!
                              Do you have a finish date in mind?

                                Would like to think it will make the Lakes Tour
