Hi,

i'm trying to locate the whereabouts of my last 3000M that I passed on (with much regret straight afterwards!) in 2008ish.

it needed finishing off after a chassis rebuild so I'm curious to know if it made it back onto the road or is still languishing in a garage somewhere!

any info appreciated.

thanks.

Andrew

it used to have 15" compomotive wheels on it but I know that these are still going strong on John Simpsons race car!

I suspected it to be a Buick/Rover V8. I wonder what other modifications the car's had.

Best,

good to know it's probably being looked after!
