Good work and a nice find, they've got a real charm to them huh? I really wish there was such a thing as scratch and sniff video ;D I helped a buddy re-register a Type 34 many years ago, it had been imported from Cyprus in the early 70s, but he wanted a correct 69 plate. DVLA were straight forward to deal with once we had a letter from VW, might be a bit harder to track the chassis number on that but well worth doing. Good luck with it ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

Cheers Bryn.
Yeah they certainly have it’s also not given 1 bit of hassle yet either (not even a stripped bolt or anything), as for the smell I could only categorise it as an old leather jacket crossed with that musty smell BL tin seem to have.
That sounds promising, I have sent the details off the BMH so I should hear back from them soon.

Nice one Nathan! It'll be on the road in no time. Score on the dynamo too - is it a Lucas C40L? If so, it's the same as on my car.

Hey nice work GBHMIDGET7274. These things are hideous rotters usually so you have had a lucky score there. if you wanna pump up the jam on its hydro suspension, you are welcome to borrow my pump for a bit if you can get to Derby to collect it.
I hope you still like this car after you've had it out on the road, those AP autoboxes are not the best means of getting the horse powers onto the tarmac!

You just can't beat the smell of BL tin...
Nice find. When will you be ready to roll?
