I'd try the smallest one first then move onto the next size up.
Seems sensible.

:bluewave: Update to my proposed retoration.I have had to put on hold the main work on the shell for the forseeable future as funds are no longer avalable due to my dog needing treatment for cancer. This is devestating for me as i was looking forward to getting it started know as i can see haveing had a cateracts removed.My dog needs come first as shes not insured and unfortuneatly theres no NHS for pets.
I will carry on doing other bits and rebuilding parts ect.
Life real sucks sometimes and i seam to have more than my fair share of bad luck.
