| I'm often in two minds about projects like this and a few Land Rover projects on here. One the one hand it's sacrilege to cut up a vintage vehicle (unless it's broken), but on the other hand I'm interested to see what it looks like at the end of the process. It's looking good so far so I'll keep watching! _________________ | |

| Thanks again guys. Means a lot! Pete I see where you are coming from about hacking up vintage vehicles for the sake of a custom but it's only a cherilea plane, vintage but not really much else going for it! (Horribly underscale) it was donated to me for this project in a poor state and I want to breath new life into it in a new way. Fingers crossed it works out! _________________ | |

Donated? Free? My favourite words! That changes things then - I'll keep a close eye on this thread to see how it turns out. Good luck! _________________ | |
