Dear Tony, Steve and Tim.
First a confession, whilst I am an enthusiast, I'm not into military vehicles specifically. I own a number of old cars but have never owned a truck.
On a cold, wet and throughly miserable Monday (yesterday) in Sydney at 6.30am I was on the AACA Forum, where (I think) there was a link or reference to your Dennis restoration. So I opened it up. I wouldn't say I was engrossed or anything but lets just say that I couldn't stop reading it and in fact didn't until I finished it at 4.30pm. I got frustrated that I couldnt open some of the links, so I registered. Then I read your Thornycroft restoration blog.
I have restored a few cars, however, I am astonished at the determination and dedication you guys have shown in even attempting this. Not only that, the quality of the thread itself - its not a thread it's a story and a rivetting one at that - is wonderful. So is the humilty. As somebody said in a post, you could walk past it and no one would know what an effort this has been.
All I can say is thank you, it was not only interesting, it was also uplifting. I will continue to follow your continued exploits with anticipation.
John
