You do realise that its club rules that if any of us 'real' H120 owners need a bootlid you will have to let us have it!!

BEFORE everyone else did!

yes indeed! the price is still on, £25!!!
NO RUST!!! only some surface rust on the top!
It was very good protected against rust on the inside!!
Just to let everyone now, I got the keys from the rootes archive center they 've got a bunch of original keys, an if you bring the number on the key you can easily find a spare key for your rootes car!!!!

Just back from a long weekend to England!
I had a great time, and we went to the spares day at the rootes archive center!
I found some great things!!!!!!
1. an H120-bootlid!!!!! In really nice condition!
2. A prop-shaft of an H120 (this can handle more power)
3. an H120-exhaust manifold
4. an original spare key
and some random peaces!
The bootlid!

I'm now 15 years old, but i think you can easily say I was born with a car in my tummy 
I've been helping my dad and grand dad for years and for some 5 years I've been working on all our cars all by myself.
3 weeks ago I did the side cover on the 1725 engine of our Humber sceptre.
I get my knowledge by looking how my dad does it and then I just try it myself...
I'll sure show many pictures of my restoration.
I hope I can do more next week.. Eastern holidays you see..

Been busy last Wednesday.
The whole wiring loom came out
The heater unit came out without any troubles
and the rear windows (those that go up and down ) came out nicely!
I really think they figured that out nicely, the way you can remove the rear windows. (same way as the front, but less room)

My dad is going to teach me...
I've got ONE BIG LUCK!!!!
The chassis is very solid!!! Only the front chassis rails below the floor are totally gone and so is the floor above it.

As promised, an update!
The badcave has been painted at least the floor is.
For a couple of weeks I've been working 2 to 3 evenings each weak.
This is how she looks now.
The interior
The doors came out...
and guess what I found... RUST ... (they made a dodgy repair to this.)
