    Nice to find them so good. Makes the next part easier

    Definitely Sandaro. I've got an HX that will need a lot more work than this one... but that's 2026 Duncan's problem

    On the note of problems, I've hit my first (not serious) one. Stripped the GTS guards, which obviously aren't original, only to find a huge amount of surface rust under the primer. Obviously had been sitting for years in the primer. Again, not a serious problem, but took longer than I'd hoped to strip them back.

    Do love me some paint stripper....

    So the surface rust was pretty extreme... I did wonder if it was a coating... but nope, definitely surface rust...

    Anyway, took a while longer than hoped, but all stripped back eventually. REALLY happy with the condition of the panels - zero rust, one tiny dent in the top corner of one and that's it. Literally almost perfect...
