Aye Ian,

That'll get the rivet counters guessing and wind sucking through their dentures! I hope it performs as well as it looks.

Good health, Bill

Me too! The chrome strips should be alloy and I have them but (a) they wouldn't be as shiny and (b) they're fitted with tiny bolts from the inside. There's no way I can get to them. What I've used is stick on stuff from ebay which seems to work very well. And the Steib emblem on the front has a fixing stud at the rear which gives the same problem so have stuck it on with double sided tape. Both invisible in use.

No rivets were intentionally harmed during this build.
