The original post explains. I first bought a 1971 series from a well known Northern series dealer.
It was an un road worthy dangerous Lemon.
After a very public fight with them they took it back rather than me suing them.
I then bought my 65 2a which I love and carried out the restoration my self rather than buying a pile of crap from a rip of dealer.
I know know everything on her is safe and all the work will last for another 50 plus years.

Thank you ;-) For me attention to detail was important.For example the original internal chassis plate was totally faded so I had a new one made obviously the original is still tucked away in side but the new one is on display I think looks fab.Amazing job
I even had a key ring made with my vintage number plate. Before any one comments if some one finds my keys they can steal the series. She is fitted with two well hidden trackers and a well hidden cut out switch.

Although important to have trackers, on such a basic vehicle nothing is "well hidden". I had the same problem on my series and to a certain extent the 110. When everything is exposed flat panel work there are very few places to truely hide one.

Hi, looks really nice. Can I ask where you got your chassis plate from?

Highly recommend these guys. The plate looks great and was dispatched quickly.
I messaged them to put the numbers on ( They are not stamped on but printed )

She looks superb, you have done a great job!
All the trouble you had probably makes it even better for you now it's running
