its been carved up
Hi folks.
here's my Ermie, all carved up!
Bought for £500 about 7 years ago. Some welding done to date to keep safe.
however, time to do something a little more, before it got beyond repair (there's probably those who will say she already is....but hey, I love her and have saved to get this work done)

more photos to follow next week.

.. always such a traumatic time, mine's up on chocks at the moment (must be that time of year) with quite a few bits and pieces missing, so the paracetamol is a good tip
