Lol
I've driven it before 😴
Yorkshire, Manchester etc would help a lot
Post is an option but think it's an unlucky tank as it was damaged in the post when I bought it lol

I dont believe in ghosts or feng shui but Im a believer in an unlucky tank. My 251LCs tank was damaged getting to me, was fixed beautifully and then i dropped it in a freak accident. Its currently being fixed, I hate to think what the damn thing will have cost when it gets to finally be fitted  |

I can collect it, I’m going to Glencoe in a few weeks time, depending on how much room it needs I might be able to get it in the car with everything else?

Lol, maybe tomorrow It's still boxed in the back of the car, I'm bust and doing no more 😴 I did however fit a fuel cap, panel rubbers and a new fuel tap to the "spokey 2" newly painted tank that's been sitting on the dining room table for a week so I can wrap it and stick it in the loft As understanding as the wife is I reckon a second on the table would be taking the p1ss Strange thing I noticed at Mark's was that mine was the only LC set he was doing 😱 Used to be all over the place Steve |
