Jeremy,

I just saw your add on HMVF; a pity that you have to sell the C15. It sure was nice to follow the project here on MLU. Maybe it's also worth mentioning the MLU restoration log in your ad on HMVF(?)
I hope it goes to a good home.

While it was winter we decided to catch up on a few jobs that had developed over the years since rampant rivet restoration.
The fan belt / water pump pulley was giving problems, we were told it was easy to take the front off to get access they lied!
