Spotted these two yesterday at soft top Sunday, was really really impressed at the condition of the cars, absolutely stunning detail on both.

Corrr they both look great, the early cars look good with that headlight conversion.

That is indeed Graham's old car, now mine

I was a little miffed that the night before hotel had me parking in a dusty car park under an immense tree canopy so set off to Goodwood at 6am with tree sap covering the whole car so it felt like sand paper and dusty from other cars as id cleaned it the day before grrrrrr its a big sticky mess atm.

Hi Alun,

It is me, how's things?

Pete, the car did look good. Dans paint man seems to have done a good job?

Lets just say hiding most of the car under the shade did the paintwork some favours

both the bonnet, wings and mirrors getting repainted (again!) in August when i go on holiday in an attempt to match colour (which dan's guy did a good job of) and a decent finish (which sadly he didnt, but then neither did the company that did wings and mirrors, hence its all being re-done).

Do you know what headlight conversion you have on the blue one PHHolt?
I'm warming to that rather a lot.

Crickey Adrian re painted my car and I could have had it done but decided not too,,,, mmmmm, I think it's cos the opening looks bigger on the early cars and it sort of looks more authentic to my mind,,,
Cracking job by the looks of your car Ph
Cheers for the info.

The other one T30CHM is mine; thanks for the nice comments but I can't claim to be doing any more than keeping up the efforts of the previous owner.
