I've ordered a couple of his pieces.....think they'll look cool on the wall somewhere.....really intricate stuff, and I must say a very courteous, polite and efficient chap - he responded to my first email about UK shipping costs in about 10 mins on a Saturday morning (our time!).

Looks cool, Sam. The 70's on 4 wheels...and all of 'em 7's. I'd wager there's no cure for what you've got.....and who'd want to be cured anyway? 8) 8) 8)

Mark Waring and 'ROO4' were featured on the TV programme I stumbled across last Sunday night, 'Top Marques' on Discovery.
