Re: Repro Tax Disc

Just a shout out for Poplar Gregg. Recently did me a great repro disc for Jodie. Even a perfect rendering of the original issuing office stamp from the scan I sent him of the registration book. They are correctly printed on the back too, so look great in a simple "plastic circle" holder. ...

Could be. He does have two travellers and used to keep the Kilo in a workshop that he no longer rents so is restricted for space.

Paid £30 for the car and another £30 to have new wings resprayed black. This was 1968 and metallic paint was the fashion at the time so saved up ...
