Forgive my little bit of self indulgence.
My car is 50 years old today. 1R-20607 came to life on Tuesday 6th January 1970. The third RHD FHC off the production line that year.
74,000 miles and been in the family for 47 of its 50 years.
It is with immense pride that I am able to say I own one of these beautiful iconic cars and the support and help from this forum helps immeasurably.
Wishing you all an enjoyable 2020 with your cars as much as I plan to with mine. Hope to catch up with some of you at various events through the year.
Cheers
Ash

Happy birthday, I trust you'll celebrate with a glass or two even if it's too rough out there to go for a drive.
