Very cool!
do you look at the Von Skip 24 7 auto site - some amazing vehicles on there?

Correct me if I'm completely wrong, but weren't these Alvis models referred to as the "Grey Lady"?

Nice!

My wife wants me to do something like this - might be a bit harder than building a Westfield though!

The grey Lady was a in that year but a TC21 that had a higher compression engine as the petrol got better after the war. It could do 100MPH !

I have documentation, however, that my car had a Grey Lady upgrade.

My saloon will happily do 80 mph .......stopping is an all together different matter. You have to plan your braking well in advance
