Yeah Heath, you know how it is, you try to keep them but people keep buying them off you! But seriously im keen to hang on to it for now, i have a 1968cc for it and it should make for a nice ride, it will be low with painted 356 rims and whitewalls!

Good luck mate, I know how it is. Pitty you didn't get to actually drive this one.
Thinking of letting one of my 54's go myself.

C'mon kids gather round,
there's a new sensation hitting town,
It's moving straight, low to the ground,
it'll pick you up when your feeling down.
Yeah i know but it's a $ thing, simple economics! I dont want to sell it but i need to raise some cash before the end of the month when the house is completed. Unfortunately it has to be sacrificed for the greater need!
I'll certainly regret it i know.
Cheers
did you sell it ? , or just change your mind ?
