    Not really into cars, but this is something special. It's mint, topside and underside. 45mph, if you're lucky.
    Gets loads of looks, and makes folk smile too, not a bad thing these days.

    That is beautiful, guess not for the faint hearted tho at 45 mph on today's roads. I bet the brakes are interesting too.

    Funny, he's never mentioned anything about the brakes.

    That is absolutely beautiful. I would have to purchase a wicker hamper and smart picnic blanket and take drives out to beautiful spots!!

    Funny that i had a ride out to Bibury two days ago and went to the classic motor Hub. It was stunning to see all the classic cars

    I've seen similar cars to the OP's friends car. If any of you are in the U.S. (after this current foolishness is done with) and you're in Indiana, you might want to visit the ACD Museum in Auburn Indiana. It's near Fort Wayne Indiana. It's located in the old Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg production plant.

    On the first floor are beautiful cars worth several million dollars each, but they have other vehicles too. Some of them are small then the car in the first post of this thread. When I was there, I saw cars I'd only heard about, cars I never heard of and even saw the offices where cars were designed back in the day.
