Another vote for anything MW Stewart touches, and also Scottos's 2002 restomod - would love to hear some high quality video of that M10 on ITBs...

This one is a sort of 'stealth' readers' car thread. It started ten years ago when someone asked about a TVR Vixen they'd sold in bits c.2007. Most such threads go nowhere, but in this case four years later the current owner responded, saying it was under restoration. And then kept the thread updated through to having the car resprayed in a vibrant oh-so-70s orange and back on the road looking fabulous:

Really struggling to find DickyC's thread any chance of a link?

[mw88]

I think he's got his own YouTube stuff, but Escy's Boxster has to be a worthy contender.

Thank you - It's OK it's only 6 pages for me - a perfect one for this evening's reading I think (stopped watching TV - too depressing)

I think glenrobbo may have been a bit giddy when he made his recommendations. As far as I am aware out of his list only Bobberoo’s focus and P5BNij’s Maserati have reader’s cars threads.
