Ian, I don't think that's Ron's old car, the boot and rear valence area on his were very '36 coupe-like. I'm almost certain that Ron's car has been out and about in the last couple of years finished in flat black, in fact I'm sure it was part of the car display at the Bulldog Bash one year. Kev Elliott might be able to confirm that.
The bodywork on it was extensive, it had (has?) the potential to be one of the best looking Pop coupes around. The mods were all done by Richard (El Ritchie) King, who's a bit well known in the air cooled fraternity these days.

By pure coincidence, I met Ron earlier this week and no, that,s not his old car.
He "lurks" here. I,ll mail him tonight, see if I can persuade him to sign up as he,s still selling lots of Pop stuff.

Good to know Rons still involved Russ,say hello from me :)
It belongs to a old friend who built it about 20+ years ago, a mishap forced a rebuild and time took it's toll from there, it's in storage as he's a bodyman who needed some space and doesn,t get much free time between travelling, it might resurface it may not, thats up to him..Peace 8BB
