Wolseley Hornet with a shorty!
« on: 08 April 2012, 19:08 »
A few weeks ago a mate of mine heard about a Wolseley Hornet project for sale , we went and looked and did a deal.

When we arrived  the seller told us he also had a shorty which he wanted rid of so we bought is aswell!  :grin: :grin: :grin:


Here is the project which we are collecting at  a later date :







And the Shorty not too sure about the colour scheme! lol  :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:













Few spares too  :grin:

It not mine and the person that owns it is going get the shorty built and then sell it to fund the other project  :smiley:

Mk3  :smiley:

Ah yes - just seen the lack of external hinges.

And for the 2? Should be over £1k but I bet knowing you it'd be about £350...
