One of the best looking '57s we've ever seen! This is the OD from our dreams as children!

Thanks Rod

The pic on the left is at the Museum (where I volunteer)

the pic on the right is at a small country Fair where we had a few military vehicles including WW11 Jeeps

Bella was re-painted last year, pre show season, I have to re-do the 'markings' not sure about the Air Cav badges ( love the Black horse though)
anyway I have ordered new stencils so we can re-paint this spring the white stuff is mainly vinyl and is already showing signs of shrinking !!

Well , Bella has been to the Garage for her pre-season 'service and is now back at the Museum before her first road run to the city of York' My neighbours were not impressed with the start-up last sunday morning.
and I even have a 'semi personalised number plate on my X-Trail !

Beautiful.

I am always impressed with the level of enthusiasm in Europe for the deuce; you guys have a lot of obstacles to overcome (parts availability, fuel costs, etc).

thank you for your words of encouragement ! It can be a challeng some times, but all the more worth it when we turn up at shows and get lots of positive comments !

American icons over here are too numerous to mention, but I've got to have a CCKW !!!
