Slightly different league, but a 1971 Sunbeam Rapier H120, the fastback one with the Holbay engine.
An old boy down the road had cherished it and polished it, and ultimately the inevitable happened - the car outlasted him.
I mulled and urred about what time I ought to let elapse before I approached his widow about it, until the day finally came that I decided I ought to see if she would consider selling it on.
I was a day too late - someone else had knocked on the door and got it for a bargain price.... to use on a banger racing track.
