Hi Tim,
You misunderstood my post, I do not have D20 kit. I found the DJH20 online, and followed up with some enquiries.
I know that I can get frames, spacers and wheels from AlanGibson. From what I have been able to discover so far, converting the DJH kit would involve a fair amount of butchery, including chucking the frames into recycling. Not an encouraging prospect, although I intend to visit DJH in August, and have a look at one of their kits to assess whether I wish to pursue it further.
There is the option of a scratchbuild, but that would require a lot more dimension information and drawings than I currently have to hand.
The plan is to seek such info during a trip to NRM during August.
You mention Roger Chivers and Arthur Kimber, do you have any contact details please, it might be worth an enquiry.
regards
