Retreaved from an undignity!
My dad fought at Dunkirk with the Manchester Regiment and left everything on that beach. Its payback time. Never re-built a carrier, can't wait to start the project.

Default Congrats on the find.

Hello Jack,

Will be following your restoration. Don't forget to post lots of photos on MLU.

I like your attitude, be sure to drive it all the way to Berlin when you finish the restoration. I guess it's better late than never.
