I like the way you've done the radiator and the handles - nicely done!

Very effective bash. Totally looks the part. Build piccies? Yes please.

That's a very good bash Chris and so much like the one on the FR....

She looks very smart in her new paint job, a job well done.

There also looks to be a very interesting loco lurking in the background, A few more photos of that beast would be interesting
