Based on a previous thread and lots of hints, I think one of the Santa Minors may be delivering an Argos car cover. Here's hoping.

Refurbed wheels, new windscreen, front end respray, new decals, new badges, full service, repaired chin spoiler. The only problem is after that lot I'll have no money left to put any petrol in.

Rocker covers were done by DJE and the oil pipes are finished in after market SS braid with goodrich(sp?) hose finishers. A previous owner had it done so not sure where the bits were sourced from.
