Yup I got that two years ago, very well put together although there are some mistakes in it.

Rick in that book you will see Heidi and her immaculate K10 on a few pages dedicated to the tiddler class.

Yep, she's quite a woman, for sure....and she and her partner certainly have an extensive collection of Suzi tiddlers.
I was rereading the Dec. 2010 issue of CMM and there's her newest resto.....a '67 K11P......brought from Hawaii, of all places. According to the story it was a total mess when she got it and it took mega-work to get it back to its current pristine state. She and her partner do amazing work !!! :clap: :up:
