Is it a TB or TC?

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

No Jake you big silly, because it's an Alvis and it's twenty years or so too young.

She's looking rather lovely. Quite the turnaround. How long has the restoration taken so far Mr Waters?

You could spend a few years using her to turn a profit with weddings and similar and then get her tubbed, caged and drop in an alcohol V8.

That is quite literally awesome for one year's work.

Kudos to you sir, as the Yanks would say.

The only thing that has happened to my cars in the last twelve months is that the dust/moss/mould is one year thicker.
