	Like you say it not about the money as I'm not planning on part with it that one's Been advertised for a while now he also had some parts for sale momentum been a bit slow as the darker nights and work but have been chipping away at it bit by bit another couple of weeks and the inside should be ready to go back together fingers crossed

	Looking for a bit of advice was going to put the wiring loom on the morris commercial lc3 but in the manual it's wired positive earth my question is if I swap the the wire around earth to is it then just a matter of swapping the wires on the coil around or is there more to it than that

	Pretty much. Hardly anything is actually polarity sensitive. Wire it as per the standard diagram, but connect the negative terminal of the battery to earth. You probably won’t even need to flash the dynamo if it’s not been used for a while.

	Good call to use cream, avoid the stark white.

	Looking for some advice I've used this high biuld primer on the roof I stripped it back to bare metal and was told I'd would be ok to apply this primer straight to the metal as I did now been told by another guy I needed to use a etched primer first as it will blister or peel so not sure if I should take it all off again three coats by roller or leave it. Any one

	You don't need etch. Advert states outstanding adhesion - if correct you are fine. I would have advised using 2K epoxy sealer/primer as it sticks like the proverbial brown stuff to blankets and is amazingly strong as well as being nearly waterproof. Very few painters use etch - it can cause a lot of paint issues with reactions if you don't know what you are doing and is somewhat old school now.

	When I was 6 in 1976 dad took one of these to a quarry in kirkstone pass. It was on such an incline with big dangerous cliff edges we didn't know if we could make it so we parked up and walked it first. I was so scared I walked it back down and would not get in. I walked it up and watched dad drive it which it did easily. On the way down I hopped in and could see massive drops through the threepenny bit Windows. Love your build, always look for it. Keep going mate cheers jed
