Hi All Looong time no post - been a busy year Getting a thread up on Kermit as requested - first big thanks to James for a brilliant and super easy deal - he even delivered - a top chap and a top transaction  Got a manifold to fit from Steve at Autocontinental, but first up today was the London to Brighton run which we had fixed to watch with the Bentley Club, so it was deemed suitably mischievous to turn up in a slightly shabby old Rolls  That pic took ages to load so more shortly as soon as I've got decent WiFi Suffice to say a top day out all round Cheers Matt |

You gonna "Shane Lynch" it?? Not a chance! Too few of these early ones left in decent unabused condition - plan is to gently improve over time but to keep her entirely as God intended! Cheers Matt |

Pleasantly surprised, when I saw Kermit I was expecting an old Shadow hand rollered in Pea Green! 😆😆
Looks a top old cruiser, nice work.

Always had a thing for these
Since I first started out in the motortrade and we had a customer who had one
If I remember right it came in for the wipers not working and of course I had to take it out for a road test
And from then on I wanted one (still not had one but I do look from time to time )

So the reason for liftage - no gears; gutted as she'd always been so reliable Went through everything, hoping this is the (fixed) culprit, just having not wanted to play due to standing... More soon - inc of a CL500 a certain chap on here twisted my arm into buying! Not complaining - great deal & she's lovely, & an insane amount of opera for the money Cheers Matt |
