Is it just my sordid warped mind or does that number plate look silghtly offensive.
I think Jens' piccy was taken when Trevor had the car.

Hi Brian,
have a look at my answer to Pete, you can ask Trevor from the 59 registre
Nice car, hope you keep the original interior

That was not many miles, no wonder it looked so nice in Trevor,s pic
sounds good, that you are keeping & restoring the original leather
keep up the good work & the pictures coming.
Jens Christian
PS, dont know what to advice, regarding the nudge bars ?
they are not my favorit WP item
