Mummy says I'm Special - Heron Austin Seven

...very interesting looking 'special'; wasn't expecting it to be 7 based, based on the looks; looks very 'of its time 'exotica' on the front end, but the front screen looks almost letterbox, whereas the rear window looks massive - looks like a sloping effect, from back to front... still it only adds to its oddball charm...

Hmmm looks like Hillman Minx lights to me, turned 900 degrees. 

 

I used to hill climb with a gent who had a seven special, he ran a reliant engine in it, which he said was ace due to alumimum and something called revs. 

 

Total honey, by the way. Love it.

Restoration thread? For what restoration?

It'll be cleaned up a bit more and got on the road as-is. It's definitely staying Oily Rag. But yeah, I'll keep this updated as things progress. I should probably just do a general 'cars in my life' thread really and stick all this shite in one place

 

cheers for the kind words chaps, I think it's an absolute belter, looks like a mini Ferrari 250 Tour de France from the front end if you squint a bit.
