Fully sorted then Jason: you couldn't wait to get that bonnet open Not wishing to hijack your thread, but I flew the flag yesterday at the local 'Lions' show. I needed a shake-down as not used it for a few weeks & got Shepton next wk end. Also took one of the Audi's along. G.

Hi Guys I was at the show at Chippenham & was looking at your Rapier Glen. I'll hopefully see you guys at the Bristol CC show this weekend i'll be in Sedgemoor Hall Stand S8 on the Opel Manta owners club stand with My 1976 Cavalier Coupe. What's on the Rapier stand this weekend & what hall are you in ?
Coupes are cool

Hi Dave, we are in the Mendip hall as normal, stand M12. A bit on the small side but hopefully we have enough room, you seem to have bagged a good spot!
David Angel is bringing one of his series cars again this year to accompany Glens left hander and, who knows, maybe even an H120
Look forward to seeing you there.

Looks really good especially with the cream interior. Is the same exterior colour as my project car was originally, only difference being mine had a matching green interior. Not nice.... is black now purely because it's the easiest colour to get your hands on.
Excellent!
