I came across this not far from the seafront in Penzance. The owner was with it - unfortunately I didn't get his name but he was really obliging in letting me do this video, opening up the bonnet (or hood) and even starting it up for me!
Many thanks indeed

Yeah, it was good to see it. Owner very obliging too.
Not the best candidate for retrofitting electric propulsion though!
