The car is not for sale. None of the items in the background of the pics are for sale. I tried to get them also.
We have been doing some work.
Fitted the nose cone frame work back into place.
Opening panels to see what we have.
Looks really good so far.
And for the big news. We have purchased AT-11 42-37620, c/n 4616, now known as CF-JNW
