    Cool. My old car. Those are the pics Jim took here in Mesa, AZ, when I sold it around 10 yrs ago. Ended up selling it to Drew Alkazar. Been wondering where it ended up. Heard it was going to be restored to original spec, but I’m glad to see it retains it’s unique period side vents and fly yellow paint. At least they pulled the cheesy plastic side mirrors.

    My notes just say 'engine in 6606'. What fun my Dad and I had photographing the car in Maltin's storage yard. It was a mess - and got worse over time as they had nowhere to store it inside (like so many of the other cars there). John

    Right. It was (Many years ago) in Henley-on-Thames. Long-since closed. Innes Ireland worked there for a while in the late 1970s / early 1980s... George Harrison was a regular customer.

    When I took that photo in 1978, I was so annoyed that the headlamp pod was sticking up... But now it makes it one of my all-time favourites ! John
