[QUOTE="greg brillus, post: 86709, member: 597"] His Daughter informed me that he had a chest infection and other things, I must admit when I heard that I started to think the worst. I never had the chance to meet him, but I have worked alongside many a skilled tradesman of the old school type, and been lucky enough to have learnt from them. It is a great shame when they all disappear one by one. I will be getting back to the company in Western Australia this week about the mudguards and get the ball rolling on the replica guards they are making. Should start making them very soon. I have also been very busy building one of the "A" twin replicas as well, so that with the original prewar Comet alongside, both compliment each other very well. [/QUOTE]
