"I bought this car in 2006 in England from P&A Wood. It was fully restored in Argentina during the last 6 years. All the beauty, body and paint was done by Jorge Sica. The engine was made by Jorge Martucci. And the tapestry was made by Bruno Andreozzi. For me, these are the three best craftsmen out there at the moment in the country. The missing parts (headlights, instruments, etc) — got them on various trips to England. Here are the lastest pictures."

These photos were taken by me at P&A Wood in England on Oct. 22, 2006 when trying out this car for possible purchase. It rained heavily. I did not buy the car and when my brother later went to have a look it was sold a day or two before he came.
