mantaray Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Will this car ever get back on the road ? No disrepect to any of the owners. I remember this car when Kev originaly got it, the front nose cone came of my old A series. He had it for a few years but never had the time to finnish it, so Charlie took on the project, but yet again fate had other idias, Charlie's ill health took it's toll and once again the unfinnished project moved, up to the lake district with it's current owner. If I had the monny and the space, I would snap it up. as Drew said, they do look so nice. I hope that this car will see the road some day, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
