thanks for lads well it seemed like a lifetime waiting but i finally got my hands on it and iam quite pleased with it having payed all my money for just a description and pics i am not sure if it was pure look or good judgement on my part but all is good.
my problem is  now do i put on road n drive it as is as it pretty dam good shape for 40 years old nice patina and all or do i give a right nice paint job to match all the work done underneath because it might look all 40 years old but everything except body is new 
engine gearbox discs all round suspension all new 
desisions desisions !!!

yeh can’t wait to be driving to the shows just waiting for registration docs. i suppose it is “little “in some respects but nearly 19 feet long and 6 feet wide i recon the litte is just in height

Yeah, I meant compared to the usual giants. Hope registration is sorted, the DVLA are really quick doing it at the moment.
