	Sympathetic resto (new wings, doors,bonnet), get rid of the godawful respray, some cool steels and some sort of pony upgrade to improve on the 52 mph top speed. Interior needs a fair bit of TLC but it's all good underneath (famous last words).

	I wouldn't worry too much about Les having to chain it to his drive to protect it from us horrible banger racers, seeing as he is "one of us" himself... Top car, cooler than a snowman's armpit!

	Wish people would remember that not all of us banger drivers kill everything we get our hands on. If it wasn't for banger racing, half the Cambridge-Oxford owners club wouldn't exist. Anyhoo, thanks for the comments guys, i'll post pics as and when.

	Yup, the Cambridge-Oxford club has a very open approach to banger racers - one of the best things about it. That is a stunning machine! Good luck with it.

	Good to see it has not gone to the scrpayard in the sky via the oval, and once finished it looks like it will be really good! And your right about the co-oc and banger good attitude to help their lovely cars survive! m0rris
