Love the colour and the steels 8)

So is this a recent purchase? Import? We always like more details and of course pics on DDK!

Welcome to DDK as well :cheers:

Yes new purchase, just awaiting the new UK reg to come through which should be in the next couple of days. Been bought in from Cali where it was a stored in a garage for about 15 yrs, then bought back to life and used for about 18 months then shipped to the UK a few weeks back. Matching numbers car but the OG colour is Aga Blue. The colour was changed about 30 yrs back and the paint isn't ageing too well. Sailed through the MOT without any advisories so i'm just going to enjoy the car for a bit and perhaps restore in the future!

Nice. There is someone else on here with a 66 912 Aga Blue Coupe to. Sorry I don't remember his username but I'm sure he will be along soon. I changed my 67 back to OC Aga Blue too. Great colour but like you said just enjoy for now.

It would be good to see an Aga Blue in the flesh as i've not seen one yet, from the pics I've seen I love the colour! (love this grey too although it's not slate grey but similar)

Mines currently in at Revival Cars with Max.....reviving it ! But I'm in Harpenden, always happy for fellows to pop in and catch up and chew the (Pork) fat !

Good luck with the car, it looks lovely in slate grey.

Looks lovely. Congratulations on the purchase, like the idea of enjoying it, means you can get to know it better and appreciate the upgrades and changes you make as time goes on.

That looks like Greatworth! Was the treasure chest unit open?
