Any idea what part of the country Ivor is on? It would be great to see the car at some point.

I'm guessing this is Phil? Welcome mate. I've heard Frank has OUY and will be starting it shortly! Watch out for a thread in 'Uncle Frank's Workshop' ! I may have to pop out and have a look at it prior to being started! :clap:

NMC 221L still lives as well, she has been tucked away in Mike Tarrants garage since he joined the Navy, I spoke to him on line about 6 months ago, she is still immaculate and awaiting his retirement ;)
