	These are a really good & solid old bus - but like all cars of that era they can suffer from rust ingress - I cosmetically restored one back in the early 80's - you should have some fun with this - Really nice & friendly owners club too 'Post Vintage Humber Car Club' - several members of which were on our table at a national classic car awards evening a few years ago - really nice people - Have fun

	Bloody hell! Snap! My thread is here forum.retro-rides.org/thread/196225/1960-humber-hawk Looking forward to seeing the plans for it. I have a 318 Mopar and Torqueflite waiting to get installed to replace the Rover and 5 speed. As GN said, rust can be an issue. I had to replace one front "chassis" leg although nothing was apparently wrong. Best improvement was electric power steering. Happy Humbering.

Look forward to seeing your progress looks a nice clean car. Hmm what's the plans with the rover engine and box out of it ?

	Yes I like this a lot also, it’s like my Singer Vogues big brother. I also believe that’s the colour mine is supposed to be although I probably won’t make it original. Norman

	Could be a while, currently waiting on bits from the States for the gearbox rebuild/upgrade. After that I've got the engine to do. Don't want you left waiting on a slow old bloke!
