My Mum had a sewing machine like that, it was electric though. Nicely done.

You could get a job at Volkswagen, I was surprised to see the wobble on the headrest, must do better.

I have managed to sneak just a couple of hours in the garage spent mainly on the interior, I have fitted the seats that I bought at Stoneleigh and re-fitted the carpets and steering wheel. i also called in at the painters who have my wheels to tell him I was getting ready for them, they should be done by next weekend.

I don't really know, I bought them from Mike Perkins (i think), they where silver, see above, following some lathe work, polishing and painting they are as you see. The make is 100+, they are 13j5.5. I cannot find any other examples of them anywhere.
