Hi Guys during our 2 year build we havent really had time to post up. Skunkworkz (Rich) , Chris, myself and a load of other mates have been hard at it as you will appreciate below. Instead we've gathered a load of Photos and info through-out the build and will be uploading the complete Build thread shortly.
Thought I would post it over here as our Feature is in this months Miniworld Mag and will also be in Next months Retrocars Mag
This build has been kept under wraps since we started and this is the first time these pictures have been released.
Breif history is it was my Grandfathers car from new in 1972, it stayed in the family until 1991 when I sold it. Then in 2008 I found it again with only 120miles extra on the clock since I sold it, but in a sorry state, I then bought it back, which is where the fun began.
Enjoy......
