    The car can be restored, or more accurately, rebuilt using a fiberglass body, but it’s going to take a lot of time and effort……and some bucks! That little girl is cute, for sure, but I’d keep her away from Daddy’s laptop computer…..but not his lap.

    2. The kid has good taste.

    3. They are about to learn that the words “Lucas electrics” send a chill through any British car enthusiast.
