Hello!

Excellent - another 'Moby Dick' under construction! This is the second Joest-built chassis (935.81 JR-2, according to the books) and it will be interesting to see some of the differences between the factory car and the replicas - that's a great shot of the cockpit, by the way.

Will watch with interest...
