Looks absolutely stunning! Congratulations! 
I think I saw the shell a few months back when I popped in whilst working in Bristol. Certainly A LOT better than my car #281!

1620 MY it was the car found in 2015 up in Whitney Bay. Only got it earlier this year and so far we’ve done nothing but store it and source the odd part. Will be done eventually but there are two others in the queue, a lowlight and a SII van that have been waiting patiently!

I think you mean Whitley Bay. Near my home town (originally a Geordie).

It looks like it had Jaguar rear lights on ! And who is this Lex Issigonis? It sounds like one of Superman's arch enemies.

According to Andrew Dyer this is actually not true! The official press launch was on 4 January 1961, but the Millionth car actually came off the production line just before Christmas 1960!

I believe you are correct.
But nice to see an article like that.
