Len is doing it for a favour, but I am paying for his time.
The favour is, giving up his time & doing it for a moderate hourly rate, to help out a bloke(me) that he didn't really know.
I'd only met Len once or twice before when I've cruised with Michael (our mutual friend)
I had rang Michael seeking help with the roof, I assume, Michael has rang Len,
before giving me Lens number, and Len agreed to do the job to help one of Michaels mates(me)
Thats what I meant as a favour, not a free job.
Len has put 40hrs into so far, at 20 bucks an hour.
Which is a whole lot less a panel shop would charge, if they would have touched it at all!!
Sorry I should have explained 'favour' a little better, earlier.

we made three bows out of all the pieces we had from both vans.

No chance of a swap
If surgery to the floor cant get the seats low enough,
I'll go into surgery myself to get shortened
Thanks to you others for your kind comments
I'll pass them on to Len the metal magician
Cheers
