  • At the Quad Cities British Car Club Auto Show, August 2010 (Won 2nd in Class out of 3 in class)

“Tardis”
Acquired 23 August 2009

October 2014 - Finished rebuilding gearbox and donor J-Type overdrive, putting them together, and reinstalling 4-speed with OD back into the car. Works great. Also replaced the clutch in the process which was the initiator in doing the transmission work.
