Hello,

Here are some pics of GPA 2196 coming together. I hope to have it done by June 2006. The chasis is done and ready to go!

Now for the hull which is in progress, we decided to replace much of the rear bottom under the batteries to make it stronger and straighter rather than patching the smaller pieces. This will be the biggest part of the project.

Dominique,

Thanks for the compliments :) I'm very excited. My top generator bracket was fabricated off of a pattern from Steve Barbers original. Dennis Francis who is restoring my GPA, made it for me. I believe he can make another one if you call him. He is located in the USA (central time zone GMT -6) His number is 918 225-2250. Sorry don't know the country code dialing coming to the US offhand.

Good Luck,
Tony
