    Just leave as is. They look better unrestored and a bit rusty IMO

    I'll see when I get it Greg...You are right that you can never reproduce patina...It's just the rusted base that would do my head in...Maybe I can try and touch it in with the rest of it...

    It all depends on how much resto you're looking for.
    If you're looking at restoring to workable,new condition then yep there'll be many folk who'll have their hands out.
    If you're looking for the exterior effect being accurate then I reckon you'd be good enuff to do it yourself.....after all didn't you do a lot of the work on your motorhouse?

    The quality of posts have ticked up a notch here, then I realised Adrian has been quiet. Hope he is ok and not walking around all over Australia with a jerry can looking for a servo.

    I have a really great cooking tip for some of you mob.
    After being a little distracted thinking of the great news re Rob.i thought I'd prep me Cajun spiced chicken and spuds.
    When doing your prep: A put on yer glasses if you wear 'em,B make sure your flyspray is sufficiently away from the Red Island Extra Virgin sprayon oil......and C don't think of that mongrel Rob!!!!!
