Great article and I really like the T1 - I was humming and ha-ing about a T2 before I decided on a Bristol. And an excellent (and brave) colour choice.
I'm particularly envious of you having such a useful, helpful and presumably willing Uncle!
Graeme Payne - already mentioned on one of the other threads - has an excellent supply of parts and body panels as and when you get to that point - if you weren't aware already.
Good luck with it all

@AndrewA

Thanks so much for your kind comments, and indeed Masons Black is a hard one to pull off correctly !

Oh yes he's absolutely ace ! Extremely knowledgable about cars and turbo-machinery, he's always such a great help on all my projects and yes always willing to help out which is so good !

Yep - GP is very useful and handy to know if you own a Bristol like you say, i bought a set of 411 hubcaps off him last year !

Thank you Andy, Ill need all the luck i can get - but I cannot wait to get stuck in !


Stay safe & Keep well
