Love the carbs, was looking at them when i was building the car. Nice to see the car is being kept mint. Sorry the wings went rusty! Cant think why thats happened, folded and sealed ok!

An answer to an earlier question, the lovered bonnet has prob been on 4 maybe 5 diffrent cars! The story goes £100 for the first louver and £3 for every one after that.
