Originally a standard 4 seater. Then converted into a milk churn wagon on a farm in the north Lakeland. Then made into what it is now as a run around on a caravan site. When it was driven in here it was running. plan is to pick it up and get it running and stopping then decide where to go next.
Its the door issue thats the burning one after getting it going

Car now at local mechanic he has the plugs out and diesel down. hopefully free off the engine. 3 wheels pumped up and held air. tyres are jiggered but it was a nice positive sign.

Re: Austin 12/4 special coupe
Had to get a replacement tank that was sourced from our wonderful club.
(A certain Mr Smallbone)
Magneto restored .
DVLA took a while but we got there
Documents arrived weeks ago. However as I was given them for Christmas (and thus the car) was a great surprise today.
Whoop
