Hey Grandmaster, that's me mate! The car was formerly my uncles, lived down the channel all it's life. 

Thanks Glen - yeah the console is a ripper.... 

Fortunately there is not much holding it in so it will be removed down the track - can sell it to you cheap  !
Cheers

Hello
I have added a few photos of the interior - bit like the exterior, needs a little work but pretty good for 53 years old.

Very cool mate, perfect match for the FC..

Thanks for the positive comments, much appreciated.

I must admit i love the green, probably not my first choice if buying a new car but for the late 50's period it works well - we actually have a 1950's stove that matches perfectly !

I took it for its first decent run over the weekend, probably the furthest it has travelled in one hit for over 20 years - went very smoothly around some challenging roads.

Cheers
Shannon

Hello all
Been following your forum for a while, thought it might be time to show my old rocket.

My car was originally purchase by my grandfather, brand new in '59.  He sold it a few years later to an uncle who sold it to another uncle, who owned it for 40 years.  He nearly sold it to me when I first got my licence, changed his mind but after 15 years of perstering he finally let it go to me earlier this year.

She is pretty much orginal, except for the wheels.  Mechanically she is pretty good (despite a clutch issue during my first ever drive!)  

Needs some body work, a little rust here and there, and could do with new paint - hope to save up the cash to have this done over the next year or two!

Love owning her and love the heads she turns when I am out in her!






Cheers
Shannon
