    Man you are making me want to hammer the top on a rust free 3W ! Fear , is the only thing stopping me . My top is filled so that’s a bit more to deal with .

    Filled top will not hamper chopping the top, just lean the front posts back

    Translation...

    "Got it fitting the body really well" = Way better than Henry's Team did...:D

    Well at least as good as his most respected Team Players...;)

    Always great Vintage Ions being emitted Via Flop's Ford Barn...:confused:...well a lot of the time it is...I remember there was a Tucker

    Many thanks for your sharing the adventures @Flop

    Fantastic work, Flop. I wish I had a tenth of your talent, and that would be ten times more than I have now.
