Great video and commentary also liked the old pictures and spying long forgotten car models from the past in the background.

Yes, I was careful to get the other classics in the shot. Thanks.

Absolutely love the illuminated rear plate on this car, it seems so incredibly modern and forward looking compared to the traditional construction of the rest of the vehicle. The AC might not be what you could consider a pretty car, but it's certainly a handsome and striking thing, able to both stand out against its peers without being too eccentric about it.

Thanks. It's hard to make a car super sleek, and have lots of headroom. I'm 6ft tall, and could easily wear a big hat in the AC!

What a lovely story. Much enjoyed by myself Having seen a Riley RM stripped down to the last nut and bolt Having been part of a very expensive rebuild to Museum quality … 10:58

Many thanks. The Riley looks like an even tougher challenge, with steel on ash.

You've got a great eye for detail! Here in the US we could learn something about number plates from the UK.. A plate should be BLACK and WHITE. (We here in Iowa can get black and white but they make us pay extra for them. $$$$) Our normal plates have a bunch of arty nonsense painted on them. Cheers

That's interesting to learn about Iowa plates, and a pity you can't just choose what you want without extra expense.
