I think the shark fin on the roof is a little avant garde for my liking but overall not offended by it either

I remember going to his place many years ago, he had a Speedster, which needed restoration, under a tarpaulin on the driveway. I think it was about £5,000 and the most I could get together at the time was £3,500 !
I don't know if he's still around - I remember one of his cars in particular - an Aquamarine' Speedster ...
.
I used to own that - or certainly an Aquamarine Speedster, I bought it via Ritchie who was selling on behalf of Mike Neal ( ? ) who was fairly well renowned within PCGB. I'm sure there aren't many Aquamarine Speedsters around so I'd be surprised if it wasn't the same car !
He put me onto a mate of his that he said owned a 55 speedster. Met the guy, agreed a price, paid substantial deposit as he requested due to having another deal to sort, then found out he wasn’t the owner. Long story but got money back/including some paid by Peter after much threatening and visiting with ‘heavies’. Ended well as met the real owner and I agreed a deal pretty much the same price.
Also bought my ‘51 split window coupe from his painter. Car was stored under sheets right in the dark depths of the railway arch he used.
Nice enough guy was Peter but he certainly and had a few dodgy guys around him.
