After the owner had e-mailed me some photo's I was convinced that this was the car, and a trip to Sheffield to have a look, with fellow club members Martyn and Paul was arranged. It came back with us and was taken straight to the workshop at Paul's Place, to await the MOT - this was just 3 days after it arrived in the country after it came out of the docks directly from the USA on the 12/1/05.
A couple of small jobs and we had an MOT and were 'on the road'. The owner in America has bolted a 'dodgy' chrome Jaguar on to the bonnet, because it looked like a Cougar - I'm glad to say that this has now been removed. The car is basically sound, but will be treated to a respray and some nice shiny wheels some time this year.
