Robert:
I believe I saw your car. There was a SS body chassis and another SS. Both
cars were in the midst of major restorations or re-assembly. The body
chassis was awaiting the drive train. The other had a rear-end,
transmission, and drive shaft. I could not see any more as they were in the
middle of fitting new bonnets.
I do not know if either of these cars is yours. I noticed sveral other cars
in the rear, but was not able to get back to them.
Hope this helps. I manage to get buy Cantab every three months or so. If I
know what to look for I will keep an eye out.
