Inspired by another Zoners Autumn post, I decided to
treat the Cab to a wash, wax and polish.
Then meandered down to one of the many local Parks
in Northamptonshire.
After the Ducks, Squirells and Babes in arms had recovered
from the sound of a 6 pot mated to a BTB, I took a few shots.

Certainly is Tony.
I love the way it sits and more impotantly handles.
The BTB backbox was made to go with a Zender rear valance ,which is supposed to be
being sprayed up very soon. So should look even better at the rear then,

Sort of mate. Just a few niggly bits to sort,
nothing that spoils it driving wise though.

Looking nice and clean as usual. The only part I don't like is the colour coded sills.

HaHa, I love them fields... was a good laugh peeing about in the cars after the beer festival. :o:
