This car was originally constructed around 20 years ago. It was sold by its owner for £25000 only a few months ago. Since then it has had the paint removed and a satchel added. I'm not sure of the engine spec.

But the satchel was used by the Earl of March to hold his sandwiches during the 1930 BRDC 500-mile race at Brooklands. Authentic crumbs can still be found inside. Guaranteed genuine. Sadly, for me, the grub had some meat paste in it - so I'll have to miss on this one.

Isn't that one of those get-you-home belts?
It is quite a nice satchel though. What colour was it before? Does it improve it?

This is different from the hollow variety and comes in a range of colours and flavours - but for drive systems, the Swiss-made material is the best: https://store.lathes.co.uk/belts/polycor...ic-belting |
