Kitten, Gould GRP Ulster body, a few hundred hours, a few more hundred pounds, and you could have a fantastically pointless car, worth a fraction of the cost of building it.
Gould bodies are now no longer available and have been superceded by the likes of Rod Yates' aluminium bodies. Actually both you and I missed an unused Gould body last week, it went for £750, a bargain as I wanted to cut it about and visualise a hybrid three wheeler....not that you Austin chaps would appreciate such a thing of course!
Do I detect a pointless bit of cynicism and/or sarcasm on your part?!
My Ulster body is No 174, so Rod Yates is doing pretty well I'd say.
It is a shame that you seem not to have anything useful to add though.
