Hi Frog,

Great work you done there.
I'm just missing the pictures of the resto progress

I discovered the joy of RR a few month ago while restoring mine..actually it was more a revival than a resto

. here

As Bram told you on a previous post, i also would have kept the original bumper..even if this one is a bit dommaged..it keeps the complete vintage look. Anyway if you're happy with the result it's the main thing.

Great work !
