Richard,

Given that I suggested a reference guide, and that I live close enough to come down, see you and your shop, I would volunteer to be the "willing shutterbug." I'm not a professional photographer so if someone more capable applies it would probably be best for them to tackle the picture taking.

Based on replies, please advise if I got the job.

Once pictures are taken and lugs id'd, is there someone (Dale?) willing to host them on an appropriate website?
