Not quite Wood and Pickett, but looking at the picture of my 60's knob-throb, Marianne Faithfull (above), anyone else noticed what large feet she has?

Currently for sale a 1976 Wood and Pickett with extensive history. A bit steep in the price department for a later round nose conversion, but probably rarer than a 1275GT one.
