    It's here! the Anti-christ!

    Came home to find this in my driveway~!
    1955 86"
    Wrong motor though so looking for a 2lt.
    Yes, the son of a maraka looks sad but that's only as the pannels are loosely bolted on.

    86"

    Looks great Cliffy.
    Are you going to restore it or try to retain its patina?

    I have a '54 86" that I am half way through restoring. Search for the "Meet Len" thread on here for my exploits. I have just reread through it and it's a bit disturbing that I have not done much since 2010, but we have moved across the country and built a house in that time I suppose. I am hoping to get back into it this summer and get some plates on it!

    I'm still looking for a supply of good second hand parts over this way (i.e. in WA). Know anyone who has a stash with a good bonnet that they would like to part with?

    Looking forward to following your travels through 86" ownership.

    Cheers,
    Chris

    Looks great Cliffy. I'd better do some more work on my '55 or everyone that bought one after me will be driving around in their S1's while I'm still thinking!
