Hello, Came across your website today. In 1968/9 a friend of mine owned chassis number 1025.His name John Axon. He was the second owner of the car. The Shell oil company were the first owners who used it to make TV adverts with. John owned it for about 2/3 years then sold to a doctor in Solihull. After that I lost rack of the car. Hope this information is of some use to you.
I also have three photos of the car.
