Theatre of Magic.   ^^^  If you like the look Pete, go for the Gold legs/gold leg bolts and gold feet, plus a Gold Lockdown bar and Gold rails to finish it off.  ^^^

Makes the standard silver look ordinairy.  I also thought a few gold chains wrapped around the legs and a few gold chains/links here n there hanging from the headbox etc would look great as well.

Saw a TOM with LEDS and it looked Amazing. Well done on a great title.  ^^^ ^^^ ^^^

VT to VZ wagons are so big in the back, very handy for transporting gear.

 $#$ Well after 1530kms $187 in fuel we arrived home at 2030 and as a result TOM has a new home and the familys delited and most of all I am she's a beauty. Funny thing is not only did I want this machine the fact that it was a road trip made it alot better Jess and I had a ball I really enjoyed the time we had and also the education she got as a 12 year old with me crapping on about facts of different areas of country Vic and bits of SA. Anyway checkout photos below, its an Aussie delivered machine I know who cares but it is and the side art is mint all I need now is a gold lock down bar and side rails.

Thanks to all who enjoyed my posts.

Peter
