I agree, he is tremendous to deal with.  I had heard that he was having medical issues so it's good to hear he's back in business to at least a small extent.  I hope I can meet him face to face on a trip to England in the near future.

Those pedals look tough. Nice work on the winch maybe by the end of this summer I'll tear into mine.

Hello prestone. From where are you in belgium?
I am nearby hasselt and had two m2s converted to m2a1 original. I can help you with most of your questions. Your rear bumpers are not m4 but french replacements
Thanks gery

It's amazing what is underneath all that dirt and grime!  Keep it up…you're making great progress…a little bit at a time!
