Just a few pics to keep the thread alive- first couple are from our show UNITY in North Wales. And the other one is from Tatton a couple of weeks back.

Also visited the cars and coffee at demon tweeks , where the old fasty received a lot of attention from a crowd that wouldn’t have otherwise come across one.

That car is looking very well, it looks as good now as it when you first posted it. Holds its own against the machinary you park it near. Do you take the front plate off for shows? Or just run with out it?

Thanks Broady! I do indeed take the plate off for shows. The plate is secured via a couple of quick release brackets from evaresto. They clip onto the lower edge of the front bumper.
