Re: Last Day
I haven't got any photos of the finished garage Matt. I'll have to take some & post them in the resto thread.

Very strange but enjoyable all the same 
Best wishes for the future.

Re: Last Day
Thanks guys. Retirement has been in the planning for a couple of years now. I realised it makes no sense to just retire with no plans on what to do afterwards so, what with our house move & covid, I postponed it until now. I'm hoping to get a few Dolly bits to rebuild and, with that said, I have recently rebuilt a Sprint engine & two rear axles and have another Sprint engine & gearbox lined up (plus hopefully Tony's). I also have other interests so hoping this will keep me going for a while.
