Some Beard Trimming ?

I've been making sub-frames for Joe's Beard seats . They are unbeateable for comfort and security whilst driving .

Joe's 2332 IDA engined Ghia is off to Bernard Newbury's on Tuesday , for trimming the rest of the interior to match the seats .

Some competition for our burnout king ?

Would Specky give Alfie a run for his money ?

Alfie's motor nearly finished

Just waiting for a little fly-cutting of the heads on Monday
