Bloody hell, wurly good result, better than my hours of elbow grease with Maguires, gimme, gimme, where do you buy that stuff. Could we be on for a group buy if enough interest is shown from others?

I really quite fancy an auto third gen. Comfy, sleek and with a pistol grip shift, what's not to like! I totally can't justify it though :lol:

I moved it out of the barn early on today so we could sort out some other crap and the farmyard was full of tractors and 4x4's at the time, so this was sort of buried away.
When I went out to get the car, it was all clear though and I turned the corner and saw it sat there on its own and just thought Wow! (so had to snap some shots :oops: )

The leather conditioner has soaked in nicely now and the seats are back to their natural buff finish rather than all shiny, so that's great.

Thanks for the info. Wayne, Wurly, I may have asked this before, but why have the hub caps not got the 'H' symbol on them like mine?

They have got them, but the wheels have been repainted at some point and they just sprayed over the H, so the embossing is there but not painted black so doesn't show up well in the pics.

My wheels need re-doing at some point, kerbing and salt damaged. I had to start using the unused spare a few years back, completely as original at that point and showroom fresh, went to stay at a friends house earlier this year in Wimbledon, mis-judged the high Victorian kerb and took a gouge out of it!!
