Hello Don, and welcome to our world. Good news - the car appears in the November 2015 edition of Practical Classics magazine and she's on page 22. Very lovely she looks as well! :drool: As for the jacket; does that come with a volume control? Ouch, my poor eyes! ;)

(OK, I liked the jacket, where can one purchase such a distinctive garment?..) :thumbs:

Don, I would have done this yesterday but - and please excuse my being fussy here - since the mag's construction technique changed a few years ago from stapled together to perfect bound, I'm concerned that I'd bend the spine if I shove it under my scanner. Assuming that it's legal :lol: , I could take a reasonable photo and post that here for your perusal unless someone else is prepared to scan their copy.
Or, you could buy the mag from an eBay listing: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Practical-Cla ... SwT5tWOnMv or this one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PRACTICAL-CLA ... SwYIhWls1v or this one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PRACTICAL-CLA ... SwYaFWhFk3
