spent a bit of time since stanford, doing those little jobs i never got chance to do.

replaced the winder handles and arm rests with NOS ones i scored off the samba. also repainted the red rear shocks, with some paint i had matched.

took it out today to Ragley Hall Classic car show, and to my surprise, came back with Best of Show :d

Stonor park next :thumbup:

That car of Luke's is lovely (aside the hubcaps 😛 ) and for sale I think - £12K or thereabouts...
