I imagine an early one may be worth more. Can you get any more details? Do you know when it was made? Could you post some pictures? _________________________ PSN: stickyfiddle

It might take a couple of goes listing it, but I wouldn't want to let it go for much less, personally. As an aside- whereabouts are you/your dad in Brixham? My in-laws live down there. Lovely bit of the world $\:\)$ _________________________ PSN: stickyfiddle
