Fair play bud...lookin good!I'm in the same boat as a few here...my wedding and house has put my sj at the bottom of the big list! I'm quite fortunate with mine as there is hardly any bad rust spots on my little santana!
Its quite common to see the prick ups with chequer plate...will you go along those line or something different?
Keep up the good work and keep up posted!
