The rebuild is progressing.

My brother has got the first base coat on the new body.

The engine and gear box is in so she's driveable.

Hi Titus, where did your brother do the first coat? Did you get him to come over to you? Last question, when is it you're hoping to get back in the saddle?

Max,
My brother is staying with us for the summer. I have a lot of jobs for him and he's out of work at the moment.

I'm going to be back on the road for next spring.

Hi Titus, I'm in the process of trying to book a ferry for next year. So, hopefully I'll get the chance to bump into one or both of you then.

Send my regards to your brother and tell him I'm trying to cut down on the postcards! He'll explain (to my embarrassment).

Hope all goes well, and try not to break this one.

Regards, Max.

Good eyesight!
No I'm not on the IoM, I'm in Germany (close to Leipzig).

My brother drove his camper to us and is staying for the summer.
My other brother lives and has a VW/Landrover workshop in Douglas.
I was brought up on the Isle of man but left in 1979.
