Me: Have I said that anything you want to do in life, do it while you're young?
No.1 son: Yes, dad, many times. And every time you say it, it freaks me out.
There was a time when I could have envisaged taking the body off a car as part of a restoration. Now it just looks like SO MUCH WORK. Too daunting for sober contemplation.
I know! I'll think about it next time I'm tiddly. Y'know, make plans specifically to not do.

How about a 1928 GN with an AC engine.
Talking to the current owner a few weeks ago and he was telling me the tale of how the original supercharged v-twin GN engine was crap, so the original owner went to chat to the Hurlock brothers at AC and bought an engine for £10, payable in 2 monthly installments!.
here is a link to a short clip of the car testing at Blyton park
