    The car as been fully restored in 1990 from bare chassis to concours condition .Up to now, the car is in perfect condition all the way round"concours" but since the last few years i upgrated the car a lot to be able to drive the car in modern traffic,hot climate, without problem because i use the car 3or 4 times the week+long distance travelling .I must say ,since i dont know what to be on the side of the road with the engine bonnet open to look what is going wrong.i am very happy to drive that car all around, a lot of pleasure to drive, great with the getrag gearbox.+disc brake in the front.at the moment i am looking to add some louvers on the engine bonnet for better cooling on the motorway.I will send you one of the picture of the car very soon to add to your information sheet.I forget to tell you that i also have an oil cooler fitted.I spent a lot of time the last few years on the car to improve the most as i can to enjoy 100% the car.Thank you for your time taking to read my comments .Sorry for the mistakes!Best regards. J.CH.

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
