I have really enjoyed this project but due to worsening back problems it needs taking and using by someone who is into something different from the usual polished stuff .<br />
I am inviting offers over 10,000 to include the vintage 10 foot 6 inch Surf Board and Original 1955 workshop manual.<br />
