We need photos Duncan, of the car you nearly bought.
Earlier this week I fitted chains (to replace the string!) on the doors, and sewed up the green covers. All the door trimming is my own work. Lock covers are on their way from David Cochrane.
Today I drove the Ruby about seventy miles in total. Went to The Motorist at Sherburn where it was advertised as an Austin Rover Day, featuring the Metro. No Austins turned up other than us in the Ruby. There was a Morris mini, and a mini pickup which DVLA list as Austin Morris. And a Rover 2000. No Metros at all. So we deviated and went to visit daughter and family, miles by we got back home around 70. Furthest I've ever driven it in one day. Oh and we ran out of petrol.
