If you want to do a Lola GT6 wide arch version I would be eternally grateful

Very cool list, Gordon.
Every time I see your thread title, I think of a song called "Mambo Number-5" by Lou Bega.

Fantastic "body" of work Gordon, a list to be proud of, though some larger photos would do them more justice.
There are a few there that I've missed.
One little correction though, your lovely J-Type is a Morris.

Quite an impressive row, Gordon!
Now you've made me count as well...

I am almost reaching half your numbers, but it is no contest!
But then you work faster, and I work slower...
It is strange, why don't more guys take to the knife when they see how fun we are having?
Cheers

Me too, and I also really like the Revis, which I presume is a half litre F3?
Personally I'd put hand made bodies, and brass chassis at the pinnacle of our hobby. Well, I love to see them anyway. They are proper craftsmanship, and have such a unique character.

Not sure why I called the J a Bedford but it's corrected now, thanks Jason.
The Revis is a fascinating car. As you say 500 glorious cc's. I must get it out of the spares box and see if a Pittman will fit. A 16D fits...just. by putting it on its side.

Incredible selection Gordon, and wow, so clever...
I love your Old Yeller ll. Superb. I was lucky enough to meet the current "custodian ", Mr Ernie Nagamatsu, at the Goodwood Revival a few years back. We chatted for like 20 minutes, and he even asked my Dad and myself to sign his racing book, which was full of stories/comments and good luck messages from Drivers, mechanics and supporters. Such a lovely guy.
I can make a resin bodyshell look nice, but my talents fall massively short of your skill and craftsmanship.
Oh to be so clever.......
