If you don't mind my saying so, a perfect combination.

I was pretty chuffed to have my car selected for display at today's Goodwood GRRC day at Goodwood House. The storyboard is a nice little momento for the mancave as well
Lots of other interesting cars there
"Birdcage"
Just kicking about in the car park! Absolute Aston perfection

Re: 72 Hotrod - my new project
The general theme of my build was always to end up with a period car with stealthy application of modern kit where I felt it would enhance the drive. And / or the usability
Today I paid an illuminating visit to RPM for one of their LED headlamp kits ( impressive facility )
Here are the results
Period correct look
2014 spec performance. With a grey car that blends into seasonal gloom I reckon these will help me go faster and more safely. As Colin chapman didn't say: "add performance through vision " !

Andy:
£1000 to 1500 for the pair with a few options to choose from.
Great looking and look like a modern take on the similarly priced but rare cibe headlamps.
Expensive, but real lights on an early 911!

Re: 72 Hotrod - my new project
Mr. Daniel Squires, I've missed something major by the look of things. Why / where has this splendiferous vehicle gone?

Re: 72 Hotrod - my new project
Dan may be along soon, but in the meantime, the car was sold 9-12 mths ago. Life's a bit like that sometimes. It went back to Tuthills and I am not sure where afterwards or whether it morphed into another guise.
