It's home, in storage waiting for me to get my MGA done in order to get on the front burner.  Still working with the attorney for the estate to get a proper bill of sale though.

It was exactly as advertised, plus some extra parts.  The challenge will be fixing the wiring which was done without the same care as the rest of the car, and extending the steering column, as the wheel is too close to the dash, so much that I can't even sit in the car as my legs don't fit.  
 

Here it is when I got it home, cleaned it up a bit to see what I had

Build diary!

The easy button for that steering column might be a deep dish wheel. I'm surprised it's close on a Locost, the scuttle is usually much further forward than on a Caterham. The red car here is a Cat, the orange/silver is my sister car to yours. Look at how far my wheel is from the scuttle. It looks like Wade's scuttle is in the same place as mine (level with the bend in the side of the frame. Is the car set up with the driver far forward?
