Progressing well! - We were privileged enough to see this in the flesh at Choppers - and we admired it then!

[ek amigo]

yes i am very lucky to have chopper on my side , next time you are around let us know

[ek amigo]

got the car painted last week , now its the fun part ,putting it all back together. got a couple of questions . Is there a small clip or something at the top middle of the windsceen , there is a self tapper hole there, and I have a metal strap about 1.2 m long and about 20mm wide with slightly up turned edges and holes in it about every 200mm , I remember taking it off the car but can't figure out where it goes now.

Hi There,

That looks like the strip that holds the rubber between the rear bumper bar and body.

It stops all the dirt and crud splashing up onto the beaver panel where the fuel tank hole is.
