You may recall me mentioning my mate was bringing one in?
Not sure why but for some strange reason when I attached them they turned upside down
Thanks for that Ed - man, it must have cost him a squillion $$$ to buy it! It's a beauty - will it be at this years Beach Hop?
Anyway, maybe if I won Lotto, until then I can only dream - and drive my hard-top edition!

Nope. Galactic North is the other way up. We're the right way up and Antarctica should be regarded as the home of the North Pole.
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

I knew you'd appreciate it! He won't say how much it cost, of course but he uses Jay Leno's guy to check vehicles out for him. He got five checked before the guy recommended this one.Thanks for that Ed - man, it must have cost him a squillion $$$ to buy it! It's a beauty - will it be at this years Beach Hop?

I have two vids of it including putting the top up and down but can't upload them to KB.
He's got a book which catalogues everything you can still buy for them which is almost literally everything including nuts and bolts and grommets! Incredibly cheap!

PS. He's not the type of guy who goes to Beach Hops but would welcome you to come and see it if you're ever up this way. He likes showing it to those who like classics and would take you for a ride anytime.

Just took us for a cruise in it. You don't drive one of these around town if you are a shrinking violet, that's for sure! Stopped at a harbour side cafe and there was a constant stream of admirers looking at it and taking pics.
I can vouch that 350hp is still plenty enough to get the old girl going and cause some stress to the rear tyres...

And I'm too worried about nurking the old Cruise-o-matic to see how much stress the rear tyres can hsndle...
