Nice car 8)

Is this the one that was advertised a while ago? I think there was a photo somwhere of it sitting in a paddock with a for sale sign on it. If I'm not wrong it was quite well priced.

It's amazing what a good polish will do!
I won't mention the list of mechanicals.
I wouldn't call it the bargain of the century but it has the best bones I've seen.
It's taken 3 months to clean 20 years of dust of her.
