We could do with doors like those for our Spridgets! It would make fitting up a damn sight easier. You'd also be able to see where you dropped that screwdriver down the side of the inner wing!

Very interesting article and such a unique car! Wonder what the final auction hammer price turned out to be?
Clive Reddin

It garnered over U$300,000.
Hemmings.com covered it in their daily email, but I deleted it already.
