Think I will keep it and restore it instead ????????
Found out it was last raced at Hillview Muswellbrook 6 hour where it seized in the 2nd hour. Was dumped in the bush for 12 months (1963-4) then the old mate found it and brought it home in bits. Sat like that ever since until he moved recently, was taking it to the dump when I dropped in for a visit, good timing.

This is a bit off the track. Went to the Orange tip the other day and found a heap of Seagulls scavenging. Orange is at least 250kms from the nearest coast. Just a bit of useless trivia.
