It looks really well done to a very smart standard
Yes it was on their stand at Silverstone, it has been prepared to the same exacting standards as their suspension systems. John had spent two years rebuilding it and its first debut was to our (Epsom MGOC) Surrey Run in July 2009 to Amberley in Sussex. John used to own NG Cars, a kit car company producing fifties TF replicas using the running parts from a MGB, he then went on to manufacture the MG suspension systems developed by Trevor Taylor (also an old Epsom member)
The suspension systems are not cheap, but are of a very high standard indeed. he still receives praise from some of the overseas purchasers some two years after they have fitted his systems. :lol:
