Default New owner

Just to put your minds at rest I am said new owner of the 603S being discussed. See my thread on 603S Engine.

I got her for £7,780 with a high bid of £8k so a bit close on the evening. To my way of thinking I can spend a reasonable amount on her and still not be too foolish...anyway I like a challenge.

Some twenty years ago I had a 603E and always hankered after another with more power.

Me and my brother Andy, a great mechanic in Exeter if anyone needs one, are serial car resorers so nothing on this old girl scares us.

We have owned/neglected/restored some 80+ between us cars to date, yes we are that old, everything from Bentley's to Maserati's so know within reason what we are up to.

My biggest concern with her is the ali bodywork so any advice on that area of work will be much appreciated given the demise (perhaps) of Bristol.

Cheers
Will
