    Located a full set of magnesium Torque Thrusts that I had restored. Been trying to find repops of old school Blue Streaks to no avail so I'll have to figure out a suitable replacement. Mechanically the car needed very little. Tune up, sync carbs, fluid change, and enjoy. Carbs gulping air, exhaust screaming at full wail as only a 2 liter can sing, with only a couple feet behind me the world sailing by. A vintage V12 Ferrari's virtuoso pales in comparison. I'm a very fortunate lucky man.

    Hi There! The mechanicals are in the process of an intensive, thorough, no expense spared update. The vintage magnesium torque thrusts are almost done. Just have to figure out the right rubber. Hoping to be out screaming in it in a few weeks.

    Haig,

    I think the consensus here is we'd ALL love to see more pics of your car. I "think" I have just about every article ever written on it. It's iconic and looks SO right. Please, when able....
