I do keep her clean and tidy mate - She's not as original or as mint as yours but I rescued it at the right time and just kept it well

She'll be there next year fella :thumb: Aslong as I have cash and it sails the MOT in March

Aye I think the rain scared away most of the people - As soon as it hit 12 mid day, it cleared up and the sun came out lol

Not much car stuff happens up here locally - Usually a 14/15 hour round trip to Santa Pod or Billing or the likes - Well worth it though
