Excellent story and pics. I hadn't heard of the car either. I do like Mr. Henderson's taste in cars... XK120, Pulsar GT-R, Rover P4, etc etc... Oh, and a bunch of C900s.

I had read about these several years ago. It was an article in one of the myriad of British magazines I get every month. Not the sort of thing you'll meet coming the other way on the street ,though. while it's a good idea, I find the proportions are off a little.
