Title: Roll on tomorrow - the old anticipation of a parcel force delivery is back
Post by: jimwise68 on November 07, 2011, 12:00 PM
cant wait for tomorrow. Got a parcel or two heading my way  so i can start one more build. its been a few years and forgot the excitement or sourcing parts and piecing it all together.

My garage has deffo been void of an OS BMX and it only seems fair to fill that gap.  :D
