Hi,
That really is lovely. Nice to see one in Maroon B as well, instead of the usual white! :wink:
Hope you're not going to be afraid to drive her now......
Best wishes,
Mike.

Congratulations, it looks great.
I'm just coming to an end of two years on the restoration of a 1956 series 2 though I am proud of what I have done it's not in the same league as yours.

Looks like fresh out of the factory, congratulations!

On a side note it looks like the locking tabs for the screws holding the damper to the body aren't bent; make sure all locking tabs in the car are secure since I know from experience they can be easily overlooked :oops:

And once again, congratulations on your "new" car!

If you fancy a trip north you'd be more than welcome and can start my restoration anytime.

You have a really nice example I hope mine is anything like yours.

I must say your car is just fantastic. I have just started stripping a 1957 4 door for full restoration. If it comes out anywhere nearly as good as yours I will be a happy man indeed. :D
