Definitely not a repost in my world, and those are awesome shots. I wish more people who've had this kind of opportunity would pull their old photos out of the drawer to share like this guy and our friend tak43 have.

The silver car with the Citroen mirrors has to be #001. It has the circular instead of the U-shaped cutouts around the door button. While I am not positive which car was the last to be fitted with that Citroen-style mirror, I do know that the last car to have those circular indentations was chassis #002.

The black car in build (if not a refit) should be #072 which would dispell the possiblity that it was originally built with the HDF Kit fitted. That would make all of the HDF Kitted road cars refits which is an interesting fact. I was holding out hope that there was at least one original.

The silver car that is almost completed could be #069 or could of course be a refit of any other chassis.

That engine shot is one of the best I have seen. I'm left wondering which car that could be hiding under the cover though. Anyway, thanks for sharing!
