Hi Chris,
Ever had a tour?
Had a day with Andy Wood a couple of years ago, drove his new Phantom and a ghost tourer, and went into every shed and store room. Absolute magic.
Best Regards

Hi Chris,
Was VIN# 510 not converted by Woolers then?
Cheers,

Yes it would be good to see and read how these 3 cars came to be converted at the factory? and by who? ... maybe Neal has some recollection on this ?
...oh and well done on the MOT Chris!

Congrats on the MOT Chris - saw you the other day on my way home from
work, you were in the Golf driving through Smalley (no escape eh!! lol) :wink:
Our garage seems somewhat modest compared to the ones on here
Mind you, the driveway and surrounding countryside make up for it

Hi Kelvin,
That explains it. You must know Jamie (ex P & A)who moved to Carisma in Colchester where they make the "Pimp my Ride" MTV show.
I do a lot of TV and have worked with Jamie, Westwood and the crew on a couple of the last Pimp My Ride series.
Sorry for taking this thread off course Chris :oops:
I must say however VIN 510 looks as if it's had a little P & A quality restoration, which I'm sure all credit is due to you.
Best Regards

This is news to me, I do not know anything about them, :o They must have being build after the factory closed.(may 82)
If they were build at the factory. They much have build them by hand and in secret. Because the assembly line was set up for LH cars only!
