Hi and welcome, image

First, I got your PM - thanks. When I replied I hadn't read this post so I didn't know where you live. You're off my route for September, I'm afraid, but I do have another 4 on my waiting list who live down to the SE of the M25. With that in mind, I'm sure to be that way again on my next visit and I will look at doing an October trip if there's sufficient interest. image

Re the end can, I know you want to remove the 'NFRU' strap because it renders it illegal in Mr Plod's eyes (and the MOT man, too). I think it should be possible to grind the rivet heads off and remove the strap but I guess you don't want holes or half rivets left behind. In this case, Paul's suggestion of getting another 'legal' strap off ebay is the way to go. image

Cheers!

Mike
