Neat workmanship there Mark. Would be interested to know what other improvements you have done in your Swan. Have you considered a motorised wind up mechanism at all, and if so any advice there would be appreciated. My back problems are leading me down the track of changing vans, but would love to keep the Swan if possible. Does your radio suit ipod etc, cheers....

Well it's like this................
Once upon a time a little boy was born in Adelaide, as he grew up his Dad bought a windup Gramaphone and the little boy played disc's on it, then as he got into his Teens hid bought a reel to reel tape so he recorded blokes like J.O.K, Elvis and Buddy Holly and played the music, then after he got married he had a Casette Recorder, then an 8 Track casette, so he still played the music now in the car, then along came CD's ....by this time he's gone bloody grey but he got one ....and played the music, and then...and then ...along came Computers, of course this made him go greyer but not bald, and then he found in shops these little Flash Drives so with a lot of patience he comverted all his CD's and some very ancient Casettes into MP3's , bought a Car Radio that has a USB port , loaded his MP3's onto the Flash Drive , inserts it into the USB port ....and yes you guessed it , the silly old bugger still plays J.O.K, Elvis and Buddy Holly MP3's on the Car Radio...and he's still not Bald.

the only time i listen to the radio is occasionally listen to the talk back shows and the News............unless they bring those programs out on CD.......no need to replace the radio is there?
