Howzit JP, check under Board Index, then Suggestions, Intro should be the 1st thread. Welcome anyway dude. Visited your
Dad the other day, the '56 was out under a tarpaulin looking sad. Definetly finish the '64 first. I suppose you guys will have to
finish the Alpha first, which is looking unbelievable by the way :hangloose:
Yeah mon, time to get that Italian stuff out of the garage and the German stuff inside 8)

Thanks Paul! Found it, and posted! He told me you came by while he was on leave! He's really done a great job fabricating new steel and spraying the Alfa! Can't wait to get the two buses in cozier environment, though! I've been nagging for a carport for them for a couple of years :( '56 will be madness when we're done with it! Will visit Klapmuts soon once the '64 starting issue is sorted!
Cheers!

Thanks a lot man!
Even if you can get one that takes 6 years to build up as the funds come in, it's more than worth it!
They're the best!
