It is featured in Garage Scene if anybody wants to see more.
I've been doing a fair bit of work on it recently, got the brakes all but plumbed in, stainless firewall, all the main engineering done, and added a whole bunch of little bits and bobs etc. Body is nigh on ready for paint, a sample of which can be seen on the cowl. Earlier this year I made a real push, spent a bunch of money on lots of nice quality bits to try and get it sorted ready for the summer.
Then a massive change of plans came along........ and I've sold it.
Yes, someone has come and taken away my baby, so close to completion. I could have cried. Two years work, gone in a couple of hours.
We've decided to move back to the Philippines, the place I lived for nearly ten years before moving to the UK in '02.
I've not been on the forum much lately, with working on the car, then suddenly so much running round and organising to do, packing away everything we own and shipping it to the other side of the world.
Here is my baby, seen for the last time, on another mans trailer. I was gutted, empty, heartbroken, when I walked back into the garage and it was just an empty space.
But the V8 bug is still there, and I hurriedly bought a 'glass hot rod body off Ebay to shove in the container and take with us. So there is some light at the end of the tunnel. It is a '28 Model A Roadster Pickup, also has doors, a radiator surround, dashboard etc. And in the fullness of time it will sport a suitably oversized 8 cylinder motor of the obligatory format.
I'll keep you updated.
