Just a shout out to Brian . I just brought a load of rear end spares for my 34 from him . We arranged for me to collect them at a swap meet on the weekend. At the swap meet he found a nice spring spreader (I missed it!! ) When I told him that I had been looking for one he promptly sold it to me for exactly what he paid for it. This hobby is full of people like him . Bubba and Max are US examples -both have sent me parts in the expectation I will pay for them later ( I almost broke my fingers in my haste to pay them). Every time some one does something like that for me I try and remember to play it forward ! Thanks Brian and all the other good buggers out there !

Yes he's a top guy.. Always there for me [ just like Lawrie.. another kiwi ; 0 ) . He donated and sent to me all the way to Australia a set of head gaskets for the start of my build.. You don't get many like that!

KARL, you also have been very good to me, helping me to locate some hard to find parts, very much appreciated.
