It's true that Nottingham is the gun crime capital of the UK, which is why it's in the next group up with Glasgow, Port Moresby, Syria and Kinshasa. :D

Great. Lead time is pretty critical for me too at the moment. Need them with Lee by 25th July..... might be a tall order!

Ok got some prices for the water pipes (set of 3 pipes)

1 off £250
5 off £205 each
10 off £190 each

Prices exclude shipping (i'll have to enquire for cost)

Leadtimes are usually 10 working days although quite busy this month but i mentioned you needed them for 25th and they said it should be fine. If we order more than one they will have a few ready for then and the rest would follow shortly after.

Hope this is ok?

Please let me know asap if you want to go ahead to make sure you get them ready in time.

Anybody else interested?

Summat amiss up t'tunnel ...Rear end playing hard to get out.It's been out before and has had a few Ye-hah! repairs,wiring,brake lines and main fixing bolts in the wrong way,seized and it's hanging up a bit ...Nothing a bit of gentle persuasion wont sort :axe
Front crossmember looks OK as far as I can tell with no rot around the rack or servo .

A proper seeing to involves stripping out the blower box (fnar,chortle),dividing panel,bat tray and plastic cover under that .Then I can see the top back face of the crossmember .I can't see into the crossmember or the leading face without chopping out the fibreglass bonded to the top but will have a pretty good idea of it's condition.
