No ;
When the part exchange is complete, I'll re shoot the Miura in front of the garage.

That is a reconstruction of the Freikaiserwagen, a Shelsley special built in the 1930's by Joe Fry and Dick Caesar. It uses basically standard GN transmission, which is roughly the same as all pre war Frazer Nashes too. 4 Chains, 1 for each gear, with open sliding dog gear selection, very light, direct and fast changing. With no differential of course.....which makes it fun! W
