    Yesterday at Haydock show was a Stalwart.this was a very well made model with loads of detail brill.
    If by chance the owner reads this you were right they are the exhaust pipes there are fans under your spare wheel that cool the engine. Making a lovely heater.

    This is a new project in the photo you see over Β£400 of kit to build the Tug after another Β£110 or so and hours of building the tug will only fetch around Β£250 why bother?

    Because that's what we do
