Default Restorable?

Probably, almost for sure if you want to go the 2 into 1 route. And I don't mean in the vein of I have an original bolt, let's work out from there and call it a restoration rather than a recreation.....
You may think we go into a lot of trouble fixing up trucks that the tinworm has gotten into, on the other hand we seem to have fewer nasty creatures waiting to take a nip of us. Which way do you want to lose?

Good point Grant - it's easier to patch up some rust than suffer a bite from a redback, scorpion or one of our many venomous snakes.
