Whats more I pursuaded my mate to sell his Cooper S to buy the kit 
. Now all I have to do is help him build it! 
The K1 Attack has had a good blasting on the middy section, have a read, havent heard much about it recently, but i think they werent too sure on the
chassis design. Looks good on the exterior though.
As the for the rochdale, any info on donors or engine and running gear ned, does look very tasty.

I'm with you Ned, i like it allot.
Us old folk will have to stick together!!

I prefer this if it can be made.
I'm with Ned too - for a change - though it was a great looking car - just a shame it's not a convertable.
