    Thanks Scout. I sold the Corvette to Auckland a week ago to give me garage space for the '46 rebuild. I still have a '91 GMC pickup as a useful toy!

    A bit of a link with you Gundoc - ‘er indoors recently imported a ‘86 GMC Grand Sierra, some of my ‘isolation time’ will be spent getting it towards being vinned . (Not a five minute job and involves sourcing suitable parts)

    The only thing involved in vinning mine was getting the headlights sorted for the left side of the road (new bulbs and a fair bit of adjustment of the lens position).

    I find LMC Truck good to deal with, good range of stock, reasonable prices and quick delivery.
