Thanks for the comments!!
Time for another update (trying to keep these reasonably regular!)... The weekend before last I took Alfred to the local vintage Rally. Most of the vehicles there normally live in sheds and are only used occasionally, however I think Alfred looked good even as a daily driver. ![]() Click image to enlarge ![]() Click image to enlarge Once the sun came out... ![]() Click image to enlarge Not sure this one was on display! ![]() Click image to enlarge And a few other exhibits... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Click image to enlarge ![]() ![]() Click image to enlarge Then round to a job I have been meaning to do for a while - fit a reversing camera! The camera came with my sat nav (which I really just use as a speedo ![]() ![]() Click image to enlarge ![]() ![]() Click image to enlarge I've got a new fuel tank home to fit next to stop some of the leaks and am about to order a new tilt. I've pretty much made my mind up on sand for the colour but not 100% sure on side windows yet. Could do with ones behind the doors to help with visibility at junctions but not sure I want ones further back. Any ideas greatly appreciated! Will have to make my mind up and get an order off. Also trying to decide on body colour as Alfred's paintwork is looking a bit crap now. Thinking to stick with green (Alfred was originally marine blue) but not sure on the shade. I love Keswick green but feel this might be a bit "modern" and like pictures I've seen of Eastnor green but not seen this in the flesh. Probably be a while before I get round to paint anyway!! ![]() |

It's an F20 owned by Cameron Stout (of Big Brother fame). Very nice and he runs it fairly regularly. I think he's planning to sell soon and get something different (although he's been telling me that for a while!). |

Very nice example of a hard top one
