While it looked the part following a previous restoration elsewhere, after closer inspection the quality of the work wasn’t befitting a car of this pedigree or up to the Auto Haven standard so we pulled it down and started from scratch.

Work is progressing well and the team are on the home stretch with the reassembly. We’re expecting to get her back on display by March/April this year so if you want to see what a money-no-object nut and bolt restoration looks like this is the one to keep an eye out for.
