Can't say I like everything about it, he shouldn't have messed with the interior.

Definitely my sort of car, coming from the 1970s customising and hot rodding scene and I’m also called Dave - plus my car’s also a 1967 Fixed Head Coupe ! Right stance and perfect body lines.
Jay sums it up at the end as there are now so many “restomods”, but this one is “built right the second time” as Dave doesn’t radically change things, but has been very subtle in the areas that have been changed.
Cheers,
Dave
