Somehow I missed this topic until now.

I've just gone a deep shade of red in the face, as if an attractive lady got a bit too close. I don't think I've ever been nominated for anything and now two of you mention our car!

Ok. Firstly, although there's obviously a story to the car she's badly in need of bodywork, although she's still a driver. So, any pictures I might take now would show shot paint and the dreaded tin worm. However, I'm about to try and find a way to get rear quarters from Noram. Problem is they only ship to Canada or the U.S. And I have decided to get a decent mig welder, but I have to attack our VW Bay Window camper with it first as I need to earn some more Brownie points.

So, all I could offer at the moment are some historic pics, the story so far and some "before" pics of how she is currently. The "after" would not be possible until sometime next year!

 And that would be perfect for it to be featured! There is NO need for the cars to be trailer queens, museum showpieces, award winners. Those cars have a place here too but there's a huge percentage of the participants on this site who appreciate the cars because of their uniqueness and can easily see past the imperfections.  If you like I could dig up a few examples of less than perfect feature cars that have generated lots of interest.

Good idea as I don't yet have a feature car for May.
