Interesting tech spec...but Ugh, that Red Hood and white showing though the grill! No taste!

[Peter Cobbold]

So the Moss/Eaton blower kit can fit RHD.

The seller explains in his listing that his father has passed away, having evidently spent his last 2 years working on this not-quite-completed project.

 

To remark " but Ugh, that Red Hood and white showing though the grill! No taste! " seems, in the particular circumstances, to be pretty bloody crass and in pretty bloody poor taste.

 

It's one thing picking holes in the latest offering from Wheeler Dealer Kerbside Sports Cars, the motor trade generally is quite capable of shrugging off the odd knockers without a second thought.

 

But is it really necessary to adopt the same approach towards an ordinary bloke who has lost his Dad and is selling his Dad's last pride and joy ?

 

Cheers

I happen to like the red with a white car. This doesn't look like that bad a deal. There's 2g in the supercharger alone

It does now as they use a Holley carb to give the clearance over the column.

Thank you Alec, I felt the same especially after having lost my Dad recently.

Kind comments Alec.

 

In any case, I always thought that white paintwork with red trim was one of the 'quintessential' English sports car colour combos.

Beautifully executed IMHO. If done professionally it is difficult t see less than £20k in resto costs. I reckon someone will get a bit of a bargain here.

[Guest ntc]

After the one Marko has for sale,looking at it but not seen by me I would reckon that car is about as good as you would find.Denis a bit ott sorry chap

[Velo-felo]

Looks a cracker to me... some nice work been done there. I reckon red and white go ok, plenty of examples of it over the years by other marques.

 

could be a bargain for someone.
