Later fully restored and now has ENO 30 plate. http://www.xkedata.com/cars/detail/?car=850030 Registration number: ENO 30 ( - clever - E No. 30!!) ✓ Taxed Tax due: 01 August 2017 ✓ MOT Expires: 02 August 2017 Date of first registration 01 July 1987 Year of manufacture 1961 Cylinder capacity (cc) 3800 cc Export marker No Vehicle status Tax not due Vehicle colour CREAM

There was the bulkhead with its front frames, engine and gearbox attached to it and the rear axle somehow remained"... During restoration "painted with 18 coats of Old English white". (seems excessive)
