The car was known to the club from ca. 1969, and with the same owner, along with the 3.0 litre for ca. 54 years.

Looks to have had a fair amount of money spent on it, and will be interesting what it sells for. I would imagine not to many of the 12.9 cars are seen at auction ?

Peter hi,

Well spotted, missed this detail in an otherwise interesting car.

I am curious why after an expensive rebuild, ceramic sealant would have been used to repair some external cracks to the block ?

Thanks for all the comments about this car, what a shame that the current owner prefers to remain anonymous and let this car rot away from the bottom upwards.

Perhaps a phone call to the publishers of PC, might be a way forward, to gain further details for those interested in taking this further ?

I see Cumberland Grey didn’t make it in the end. A wise choice going back to period color. how close a colour palette match is the SSG on 108 to that from the works ?

The body looks excellent – wonderful work.

So it has now been around for a good while and floated over to another dealer to try his luck…
