I'll put in a speculative bid on a sniper, if you wouldn't mind hanging on to it for a while, Paul.

It won't be for crushing drums though.

Yes, and, I'm hoping, the receiving unit for the remote so I can hard wire it. Considering the work involved to repair it and the fact that it needs cable, it's only a silly bid but fingers crossed.

Thanks again.

No, just by typing "Bump" to be bloody minded.

Post by: Julian on December 09, 2013, 12:13:35 AM: I give up!

In the now very unlikely event of winning it, it would be mounted somewhere under the bumper, so only the fairlead (yet to be made, bought or stolen) was on show. The only difficulty with that plan is accessing the free wheel leaver.
