Extraordinary FULLY documented 60 year ownership with every mile covered and penny spent during that time. Truly remarkable. The car drives very well with an £11k Guy Broad engine to 250bhp S specification 500 miles ago. The car needs a fresh coat of paint (which I can do for you) BUT there is no rust just some cracking caused by engine bay heat and enthusiastic ownership where fun was the priority. It is truly remarkable. It's well covered on our website but you'll need to spend a day going through the history
