In the club for now...
Hopefully he will join. Stonking car it was...wish I'd taken a pic. Looks very sweet in Emerald.

I have to say I was suprised the 929 was the oldest we knew about. We have Sprint survivors down in the first ten don't we...???
Any advance on 350 anyone....???

Wasn't there a Valencia 1850 on a K plate that was the oldest known survivor. I saw it at the 2007 TDCIR at Hatton.

Lovely old thing, very satisfying to see that it's being given some nice paint.
Yes, that's a gem and no mistake. :)
