Maxige, hats off, thats about my favourite AH build!
I have a dutch blue step front, and its slowly gaining AH bits and pieces, but at heart its a GTJ with a 1750 motor. Someday I'll have the body sorted and do an engine upgrade.
I recall your car was originally destined for Dubai. Is that true? Were you the owner a the time, and how did you fair with running it out there? I couldn't help but keep my eye out on a recent business trip, incase it was about!
The Porsche too, just great.

Engine is standard block with ported and polished head, piper camshaft, twin carbs... Lots of mods to suspension, exhaust, to make it race worthy. Going to be a labour of love and tears I reckon..
Humm... make it a bit more presentable and see if you can get it in the Goodwood St Mary's Trophy!

She's lovely, is it a 2L Low Chassis? What year? I had an hour on the M25 during some rather inclement weather yesterday (hood inoperable) but I am pleased to say I didn't get wet keeping a steady 65.
1935 4 1/2 litre ''actually ol' boy''.... owned for 33 years - [longer than the wife, in fact - not that I ''own her'' of course - ahem] ... Mr. Magoo said:

oooh - I was foxed by the Rad. But what do I know, all a learning curve for me right now. Meadows?
p.s. 65mph Alec? That's clipping along nicely. I've only had mine up to 55/60 and that's approx 3,000 revs. I'm a bit nervous exceeding that.
p.s. had mine at a Goodwood Breakfast Club a while back. Nice drive out...

Indeed, we chatted about Mehere's car a page or two back. It fooled me too but it's got an earlier rad.
