    Hi Vintage nut, wish I could take the credit for the last trim shop photos but credit must go to my " professional Snapper mate " who wishes to remain under the radar, more to follow I promise, cheers Kev.

    I have a question about the wheels that are on the car. Are they stand-ins for the originals? The photo that shows the side view of the car at the interior place shows the car with 2 ear knockoffs and the wheels don't look like Borranis. The car is looking great! I hope it will make a trip to the states at some point in the future.

    Hi David, thanks for your interest. The wheels on the car are staying and have just been re built, the " Knock ons " are slaves and are temporary. Cheers, Kev.

    I love the overhead photo. The looks on their faces seem to say "you better not drop that camera!"

    Hi Vintage V12 Nut, I'm sure you'll be delighted to hear that after a private showing at the "Earl of Marches" Goodwood House in Sussex our client took delivery of 3527 and was last seen leaving England heading for the south of France. Recieved feed back was a one liner " perfect" !!!! Cheers to all who have followed this saga if there is interest i'll endeavour to post updated photos detailing the progress post conservation. Kev.

    It's a GTOfest I tell you, for further info regarding "Octane magazine" check out www.octane-magazine.com Enjoy, Kindest regards Kev.
