Wheels
Two original wheels were restored with new outer rims and spokes, then 4 new wheels were commissioned and built up to order.
Radiator
The radiator was fully restored with a new core and re-chromed on the shell.
Two new Kenlowe fans were fitted to help with cooling. The car still retains its original fan assembly although not fitted at the present time.
Summing up
Since the complete restoration the present owner has enjoyed numerus trips down to Le Mans where the car was able to stretch her legs. We were told she behaved impeccably with no problems.
We ourselves have had the pleasure of driving her to several BDC events, where the car again preformed perfectly.
The present owner has now decided, at the age of 78, that he would like to pass the car on to a new custodian, so it may be used to its full potential. |
