Thanks PB. Don't know yet what the next project will be, or when, but I gotta let the $$$ pile build up again.

Thanks ollo ollo. Love that Trofeo, very nice. I pondered the idea of going with period proper componets but the Veloce was on sale.

Thanks to everyone for the encouraging comments.

Also thanks for noticing the great photography. But I must come clean...I did not do it, it was done by an old friend who is an accomplished photographer. He used a Sony H-1.
