Glad I checked ‘Wallace Minor’ over today……last weekend we did nearly 200 miles on the Aquae Sulis classic tour and I noticed the steering seemed to have some play….and there were a few vicious potholes that we couldn’t avoid!

Changed my mind regarding the dashboard on the special……. Was going to just have a sort of ‘glovebox’ on the left but it didn’t seem balanced with the right so……I decided to make another aluminium section for the left as well 😜
