I have heard rumours that Mark @Flatlands may be coming back into the buggy accessory market.

What a very strange way to do business  :-\

An interesting addition is it a swirl pot or a submerged pump position.

It's a swirl pot taking fuel from main tank into pot so all fuel in tank is useable and no fuel surge with suction and return pipes to engine adds another 1.8 ltrs to capacity  ;-)up

Dam! I am going to have to steal that idea too. My fuel tank will definitely suffer from surge otherwise.  8)

So after finishing seat belt mounts I noticed some of the primer I put on 5 -6 years ago was cracking and lifting. One of my customers does shot blasting had to repair his Forklift so a trade was made got the chassis re shot blast and have started priming again hope to get some colour on soon 8)
