Fantastic! If you said I could choose just one to take home, I don't think I would be able to make a decision!

I don't think so, Jon. The only example I can find with an angled front plate, and that much nearer vertical than any of Norman's, is the XL3 prototype, OK 3537:

These cars belong to "Norman" (Gus) Purves - he has an extraordinary collection.

He has a very pretty R Saloon as well.

Bill,

It's called " Anno Domini". I do it all the time these days. My excuse is the predictive text app that i haven't got!

The radiator shell is amazing and well worth waiting for!

Will start getting together all the fasteners, brackets etc so
I can refit it later in the week.

I can definitely see the light at the end of the tunnel now!
