Well then. There it is. It's final

Brandon insists, so clearly there is no choice but to go ahead :D Please pass the popcorn Brandon.

Regardless of any decisions this thread is great publicity for VWoC :wink:

I have to agree with Cam here(fleet16) I know that as a matter of safety she had to be gone over with a fine tooth comb I just wonder if they kept the original Star Dust nose art and panel that was fitted to her when Harry had her?

I think the plan all along was for her to carry the markings of Willie McKnight.
Not her original identity, and certainly not something that a second seat would prevent.
Originality is preferable with historical artifacts, I agree.
The choice will always go to the one holding the purse strings. :wink:
