A nice set of well crafted images Colin.  Lovingly restored by him?  I'm intrigued by the "thingy" that looks like a combination lock on the LHS of the dash in the last image.  What is it.

Thank you John. Owned and restored for many years, we never got to see the original condition as Stephen had this hidden away while he worked on it. The 'thingy' is a fuel gauge reminder, basically he doesn't trust the car fuel gauge as it flickers all over the place and until he can find out why, every time he fills up he adds a couple of hundred to remind him when next to stop for fuel. Simple but it works.

Likewise I too am intrigued by that!

great set of photos of a quite rare car Colin.

Sounds like a dry joint or a broken wire.

A great little car.....I remember when they made their first, very distinctive appearance on Britain’s roads.
