[penfold38]

Went for the TEX wing mirrors, and the cars was last on the road in the 1980's i have only had it for two years, but known of it for a while.

[ANON]

i remember seeing it on the road somewhere?? if you got it local it could of been at ian harwoods? where did you get it from?

[Redbaron6969uk]

That looks great....I will be chuffed if mine turns out anywhere near as good as that.

[penfold38]

It took alot of hard work and iam chuffed.

ANON,

It is a local car registered in Liverpool, and spent most of its time in the north wales area, it did come over to ellesmere port on a regular basis not sure if harwoods though will have to ask the guy i got it off, i know at one time it was very highly tuned with a 1380 engine i think.

[ANON]

it's bugging me now where i know it from?? i might of even worked on it but that would of been about 20 years ago!!

[penfold38]

I will ask the guy for you.

Nice to see its finished, nice job

[penfold38]

Well for the first time today i actually road tested it, and it pulled really well and sounded just great, probably needs a rolling road tune.

So i guess this is the end of the thread?, i suppose i could add to it from time to time with new pics when on its travels.

Been told many times its worthy of a mag feature, so will send a few pics and covering letter to the mini mags and ask if they are interested in a feature, i dont think it is as there are better projects out there!!.

A few pictures taken today.

[apbellamy]

It's looking great. Defo worthy of a mag feature. A proper home restoration all done by yourself - exactly as it should be!
