Can't help with Simonds or the Rio, we're in Queensland, but just wanted to say congrats on your build. You must be so excited. Thank you! We are starting to get excited...this is our fourth and hopefully final build - first time with Simonds.

Have really enjoyed stalking other Simonds builds. We settle on our land on Friday and are awaiting our colour selection appointment at the Melbourne Gallery. Anyone else out there building with Simonds or the Rio in particular?
