It is nice isn't it, quite an unusual carb setup too. Would these be ash framed?

I assume they were Ash framed. Old school. If done right it should be one of the nicest interiors of any cars of the period.

I find myself thinking of a suitable punishment for whoever chose that colour!

It looks like a potentially satisfying restoration project.
Good old Coventry Climax engine.

Seats look nice. Something horrible has happened to the windscreen in the past.

Finished at £9700, its a rare car and pricey when restored. We saw one a couple years back in the auction at Beaulieu, from memory it hit just under £40k.
