Hmmm... according to the retail price index £600 in 1956 money is still only equivalent to $20,000! Imagine getting a brand new Land Rover for that nowadays.Quote:

That's a beautiful car Scallops. Very nice indeed.
Nice looking car - a credit - what tail lights did you end up putting on - they suit it well?

That S1 is the same colour as my envy and was made the same year that I was.:)
I showed it to Sal last night and she reminded me that I have her A Model Ford in the shed that wants my attention. :mad:
if it only came with the basics they could probably do it!Quote:

How cool Scollops, a great project and a creative way to announce it, oh and what a weekend to run it in.
congratulations
I'm very pleased to see everyone is as excited as I to have perfected the art of time travel. My rear lights are genuine Della Beacons, as were fitted in 1956 - hey - didn't you read the post? :D
I'm carefully running her in and expect to go through all the usual warranty issues we real LR drivers get. But I think I'll delete my wanted add for the cab roof from the markets section - I'll just go through another facial distortion next weekend and head into Blue Ribbon and buy a new one! :blink:
