Hello Richard,

Thanks for the reply, I am after any measurements that you might have but the armour would be a most welcome start.

Regards,

Jonathan

Great rebuild. I was so tempted when those came in from Israel, just couldn't afford one, even though they were very reasonably priced considering their rarity. I guess I will have to settle for asking if I can tow Adrians, so long as he is driving!
