Hi Marcus,
I am not sure yet, I would like to go but have several cars which need finishing. If you change your mind I do have an original set of the red framed stickers from a 67 car so maybe we could get some made? The ones from the US I believe are not on the original style foil.
Thanks
Alan

Ah its my favourite colour in an SWB, and this one is jsut beautifull.
Regarding the wipers: I had for years a high resolution pic of this on my desktop but sadly my then pc crashed. This was a press shot of a lhd car and the wipers parked on the right:
In fact, the outer wiper was parked high up like here -

in fact most SWB cars put it too low, a bit like the later MY 1968 cars.
I know how notoriously difficult it is to get it just right but surely someone might have the correct measurements?
I might be a bit quirky but I always liked that in an early swb
Best regards,

Still not quite sure what the prize was for, luckily my pal Owen (metallic green bent screen 356) picked it up for me and has kept it safe.
Maybe it was for the hawaiian shirt.

have to say the car looks stunning I bet your well pleased with it..
Mind you I do like that DS of yours as well. For some reason perhaps as a kid I saw too many of them in France, I quite like them..
