I wanted to pick up the parts that were left over from the car such as all the left hand drive steering components, but of course, I also wanted to have a look at the progress first hand before I collect the car.įirstly, I’m really happy with the car. I’ve been to visit Stuart and Chris today at Watermill Carriage Co. All body to chassis fixing bolts in floor (10) missing!Īll of this has now been replaced, but it’s amazing to consider that it was all removed from the car and never put back on!

I’m talking about parts that had gone walkies from the car over the years. I’m not counting the parts that were incorrect (of which there were also many) or parts that were damaged (of which there were even more). I’ve had a little count up and made some notes and there were parts missing all over the place. What wasn’t clear at the time was the sheer number of parts that were physically missing from the car. When I bought JSK at auction, it was obvious the hood and front bumper were missing and that the steering wheel wasn’t original.
