Owned in the 60's by Phil Peckham, this photo was taken when he sold it back then. Previously he owned Airline PA 0838 which I am restoring hence the contact. It is now a K3 project.
I saw it for sale on the cars section here when typing in the reg no. He told me he sold it to Barry Walker back then. I have let him know what happened. At least his Airline survived!
So sad to learn of yet another original car being turned into a "charlatan." This is very original and complete car, albeit not exactly pristine. It is eminently restorable as it left the factory. Everything is available. Some years ago I tracked down an NA 2 seater fitted with an HRG streamliner body. Basically a rolling chassis in very poor condition. I am very happy to report that it has been restored to a very high standard to the the condition in which it left Abingdon. It gives it current owners great pleasure on the road and track. I rest my case.
Yes John I am working on it now, thanks Lew for chipping in. Doug was a lovely man and bought the car off Phil Peckham in 67, never been on the road since then.
