I'm not on faceache and the page can't be viewed! Is there anyway to post a picture up? Thanks in anticipation.

That is just truly amazing what Gerry has done. He is in my opinion better than most of the professional car builders and should be recognized for what he has done

Seeing as it's in Practical Classics magazine, I'm really hoping it'll be at this years restoration show at the NEC. Would justify the entrance fee on its own .

I'd say: Gerry for president!! Or PM if you want.


This man should have been given "carte blanche" some 17 years ago. I'll bet we would still be able to buy new Rovers and MG's if he would have been Head of Design

I wonder how much reinforcement would have to go in the chassis , cutting the roof off would compromise the body surely ?

I'd guess rather a lot if Gerry going to go the normal route with his builds and put it through for an IVA.
