Glad to hear Percie has found a new home. I know Chris had been trying to find a home (he joked with me a few years back that it had shrunk and was no longer easy to get into; Chris had wanted to put his efforts into their new LWB van project)
It had a number of 'improvements' over the years for modern use, and ironically he felt that may have prevented an easy sale at the time. But good news for a buyer I'd say. If you pm I'll recount what I can remember, and who has worked on it.
My own GPC is a very late Guildford plate (in relation to Austin 7 production run) so it's likely that it has a plate change at some time. There must be a write up on Percie in one of the grey mag indexes? Perhaps it was just registered very late.
