Kyo Posted September 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 thanks lynchfourtwenty hope all is well, yeah as long as it is complete and not to far gone i will be happy. my main concern is that it has a straight frame and it is not so rusty as that it is more than i can handle. thanks every one for a warm welcome.
