Looking good Bantum! Will you ever throw some luggage up there or too worried about damaging the paint?

And I see you’re operating out of a shipping container, that would be tight (but better than nothing)!

Will eventually put something on it - not sure what yet as it will have to be light weight & not too bulky ...

Yep its a bit tight in the continer, a move is on the cards ... Engine has to come out & things fixed to be ready for SubiNats ... :)

Ciao, Bantum ...

Bit more progress on the wagon - Finally got round in moving it to a suitable 'garage' to work on it ...

Bantum, I didn’t realise your touring wagon was auto - maybe I missed that detail earlier.

I like the spray can cap on the carby, or is this a 3D printed number?

And what’s with the pipework on the PS rack? It seems to go everywhere and looks painful if you ever needed to pull the rack out!
