An interesting read about the restoration of this car. Lots of challenges faced and money needed to recreate some of the parts.

Their Blog with more detailed pics. Or maybe it should be called a Slog.
I wish them success in getting it running again.

I saw this car at Beaulieu when I was in the UK in '93. The driver had to have "balls of steel"
