Fantastic car - looks just like it rolled out of the 60's Got to ask, the picture of those turret boxes, are they as fitted to cars prior to the larger and taller more common turrets that we are all use to seeing? Cheers
nice build there.
wouldnt mine the banned wheels
turrets in the making
turrets were fitted to the early works/private entry cars arround that period for a year or two before they went to the tall boxes. and no your not having my wheels davblue.
