Remastered??? What on earth does that mean? I had to remaster the art of driving a Seven after many years without one, and I am aware that there is a technique of remastering old record, to produce the master to make more copies, but a body?

Prefered evocation myself.
Love the colour.
But alot of it worries me.
I know and appreciate these cars were used and abused, so how much of it has to be original before we go wow.
I noticed the front spring is not correct, wich makes me feel the front axle etc is also going to be a standard axle bowed. New body. New dials. Etc etc etc.
So are we looking at an original chassis, even though that's the most perfect chassis stamp you will ever see??? And an original engine.
Is everything else evocation / remastered.
Still love the colour though.

Don't you just love that "unsupercharged" label - negative-become-positive advertising puff at its best. Would anybody have advertised their sports car are the "the-three-speeder-not-four-speeder" or the "nasty-cheap-cycle-wing-job"? Not too keen on the kneecap-slicing extended thread below the dash....

Am I imagining it or is the front damper mechanism behind the front axel ?
I am always interested in any information about Rosengart details or current owners.

Great that Stuart could join us today. Soon he’ll be back in the studio, with that scratchy old eight track tape from Rockfield Studios in 1984, remastering it to eighty four track as the first part of adding a symphony orchestra, a bootleg of Robert Plant singing in a pub car park in Walsall, and Terry McGrath leading his band round the car park at Prescott. Next week, how to rewire your Moog Synthesiser.
