Hi and welcome to the forum.

I've got close to buying a Futura several times in the past but never quite got there... always liked the idea of one.

Did your refurb include re-doing the seam glue?

Interesting Jeff. That account has just listed over 1500 items inc some of the rarest classic cars & motorcycles, ribs, motorhomes etc!!

100% a hacked and now scam account.

But worth a look to see some of the gear he claims to have.
