Nice... always been a fan of this one.

Question about the nut.... it looks scalloped to me or is that an optical illusion?

 

[jacco]

Not an optical illusion Marcus, one of the previous owners followed the late 80s trend

I hate you, Jacco - you couldn't have waited 4 more months.

I've been staring at the pix and am starting to enter the 'What can I sell to buy this' mode, AU$2,200.00 is not pocket change.
Will be in touch again soon.
