[SEL] New Aussie iron

[Russell Gilbert]

Thanks guys, A couple of years ago I bought a nice large cast iron muffler. 
Always had a dream of owning a nice larger engine and putting the muffler 
to good use. well it's all done now and really looks the part. I will have 
to get it cleaned up and paint it. Also still need time to get the elbow 
grease onto the engine itself. It does look much better than when it first 
arrived home but could still do with a lot more cleaning.
regards Russell
