Re: John Peel 4 seater +8 for sale

Interesting !
We recently "built" at NEW ELMS a 1985 Plus 8 3.5i 4 seater in Ferrari Giallo Fly yellow, for a customer in SW France, based on a new galvanised chassis and VSM Steve Barnes body. The original 2 seater donor car had been written off in 1990.

Re: 6" wire wheels

Hi Jim,

I'm sure Richard's blue ones will look perfect on your light blue 4/4, but if you prefer silver or black I have a choice of "new old stock" wheels at bargain prices.
Give me a call at the New Elms workshop.

Best regards, Tim Ayres.

Re: Book Sale

Dear Bob,

Would you please put aside the 250F and Porsche books for me?

I'm not sure when we are next both likely to be in the same vicinity, but perhaps one of the Silverstone meetings, or Brands? Please let me know what I owe .

Regards,

Tim Ayres.
