I kind of like it too :-?

A stealth Traveller!

Are the one piece side windows glass or acrylic?

The one piece windows could be a brilliant idea. My sliding windows leak so bad they might aswell not be there! And the runners just hold water like a sponge.

I thought I recognised that car, a rummage through some old photographs revelled this:[frame]Image[/frame]
Sorry about the quality but I use an iPad for most things so I just used the camera. Also the photocopier on the printer doesn't really work very well...

The writing on the old documents is my dads when he used to work at Charles Wares. I asked him about the car and he said the wood was replaced and work carried out on the chassis (floors mainly). The front of the car however was NOT touched. All that awful patching on the inner wings etc was not done by the Centre, thought this needed mentioning for clarity.

Good to see it in use after all that time outside, hope it brings you all the joy you deserve. :wink:
