Yes, Rich (see his thread on deloreans.co.uk) and I used PROSTRIP in Nottingham. Prostrip is 1/2 way between us and Alex so seemed to make sense. In fact Bandit I believe was the first to use pro strip (from the looks of my post). TBF initial strip is the easy bit.

Thanks chaps, I have the van on standby..... Luckily I have the week after next off so hope to blast through a lot of the re-assembly in that time. Although my usual effort is sit in my shed with a beer pondering the effort.
