Nice engine build. The chap I knew who owned the car previously has, unfortunately, passed-away. His name was John Abbott and he lived at Hollowell, on the outskirts of Northampton. As far as I know, he built the car; he was a very talented individual (retired engineer by trade) and, at one point, tried to launch his own kit-car in conjunction with a business partner.
I still love that reg!
Cheers,
Ian.
