All the best anyway which ever way you go & will look forward to seeing the new ride!

Thing is, you could pretty much by a new Deluxe, do DNA wheels, tires, Samsuns, Shotguns, seat and bars for the same $$. Sad, but you never get back what you put in... ('course I'm figuring all the labor being done myself)
