Exactly!
This was their original body and dates from the very dawn of glass-fibre bodies - about 1951
Well done.

In one of the latest books I took, there is a picture of a finished car and it seems it survived (it looks like a modern picture).

That's this car:

Is it definitely the same car?  The front air intake is rather different and I assumed it was a different car!
