I was curious and when I discovered that it was for sale, my imagination got the better of me! Within a few days, I had contacted the owner and started to learn about its history.

After a lot of email tennis and some great information about the work that had been done to the car over many years, I decided to bite the bullet and put in an offer. And now, I'm expecting a delivery this Thursday evening!
Next time, I'll go through the 'project' and the work I intend to do...
