Very pretty looking car, congrats on the purchase.

Do you have more pictures?
What's the condition like?
Does it run?
What are your plans for it?

Enquiring minds wish to know (well I do anyway)

I like that! Quite a modern looking design for the time too. Which engine did they use?

2.7 litre V8 which was essentially two Standard 10 blocks mated on a common crankcase with alloy side valve heads.

Congratulations, that's a very important piece of motoring history you have there.

Fantastic! Great to see motoring history.

Tough decision to leave as is, or to fully restore.
