That looks lovely. If they'd been better quality photos I'd have added some to my wallpaper folder. 8)

Does look very good despite the low res. ( let's have some proper pics please) Where is it photographed? That also adds to the ambience.

And it's got an intact 'smart red reflector'!

Thanks guys. Wanted to make sure bodywork was A1 before posting pics[thanks Mat]. Sorry about quality of pics borrowed parent's digital camera as i sold my beloved Eos 1ds to fund the restoration! Pics were taken on the prom at Morecambe. The sunsets are amazing with the Lake District in the background. Hopefully you will all see her in the flesh at Wetherby. Regards Mark. :)

Hi Tim,
Subject to my employer granting my annual leave request i'll be at Wetherby Sat & Sun. Have you decided which of the "fleet" you will be taking? :)

What a stunning example. Thanks for sharing the pics with us. And I hope we'll see the car at some point at the CCC National rally?

This is a very nice example going off the pictures. Very much worth spending the money getting it up to scratch... Not that it looked bad when it was on eBay!

Makes me want to keep mine :lol: Something tells me I will be holding onto it. I have a storage space coming up next month 8)

I agree with Tim - a couple of those look like the original press shots. Excellent work, really impressive result.
Just to recap could you tell us what you've done to it again? I don't think I recall this on Ebay.
