The car but 5 miles away! the next thing of course I'm looking at this yuky gold OTS (with factory hard top) quite solid, running, but in need of refreshment and still with its original Marston radiator fitted, even the cadmium plated components are still in good shape.
The original colour according to the Heritage build sheet is Opalescent Blue - the same colour as the FHC featured in the 'Factory Fit 3.8 Series' post but with a light blue interior, which I assume would be the same as chassis no 15 from CMC.
But the coincidence - the build date 10th April 1962 just 7 days earlier than my FHC, the engine number 14 away! they might even have passed each other on the production line!
Do I need it? like a hole in the head...
Sleepless night coming up!
