Excellent. Only thing I would add is that the flat floors were not being made by June 1962. Mine Is May 62 with dish floor.

Contains some serious errors in relation to gearboxes. NO 4.2 cars were fitted with Moss boxes : they have obviously become confused by the fact that some late 3.8 cars had the all-synchro box

They are just a guide and have a lot of info in one place....they do say that they have just pulled together information from the internet and enthusiasts and that if you can add or correct info then inform them.......and most important not to use it to purchase vehicles.....just like everything else on the internet and forums.....use it as a basis for your research......there are lots of other cars that they give details of do quite a good resource
