Some the information listed above on S830079 is incorrect. I purchased the car in July 2001. I have the JDHT certificated #15707 that lists the following numbers; Chassis S830079, Engine V3159-8,Body F15081, Gearbox JL39667JS. About 6 months after purchase I was able to obtain the original engine and transmisssion. All components match the data plate.The engine number listed above is erroneous, as well as the address in the UK. As of June 2006, the car is under restoration, with the rebuilt engine recently installed and running. I'll try to add some photos.

Mr. Oliver says these are the correct numbers from the data plate and his heritage certificate.

About half way through the tediously slow restoration of 079, and after I had painted the car, I simply changed my mind about the color. So, during the summer of 2007, I completely disassembled all that I had done, sanded the green paint off, and repainted every inch of the car back to black as it once was originally. Now, in the spring of 2008, she is together again, and is essentially completed. Shake down and sorting during the next few months will be followed by some road time. I've posted some photos taken in May 2008.
