Hi Mike

Re the Growse one, Alan had it when we visited him, he had passed it to his son as a project. I have not had any contact with Alan since he moved to east Gippsland some years ago.

It may be one of the early group most of which were registered around 55XXX (like my first F15 - 55401, now 'gone to Blitz heaven'). This was a fairly small group - don't remember the exact number, but 400 comes to mind for some reason - so if he finds the 'BB18...' number we may be able to isolate a rego number for him.

Looks like he has the makings of a couple of Aust steel base bodies for his F15: besides the two attached sides, there are four more stacked in the tray.

Whatever happened to the Peter G F15A hybrid with the nice CDN 2C1 body and spare tyre carrier? Has Allan G got it now?

Mike
