Anyone got any clues about their “spring 2023” new projects ?

I’ll be at Gaydon next year. I couldn’t go this time as I was doing my class 1 training. I sacrificed Gaydon but passed my test first time  :thumbsupup:

Yes they were had a good conversation with them, really enthusiastic about the show and the future. No real give  aways to what is in the pipeline but  they did say that Howard is still in the background guiding them, and that is what they wanted when they took the business over so watch this space.

I’m going out on a limb and guessing Volvo F86-I can’t think of much else that hasn’t already been made by the aftermarket companies that is mainstream enough to sell in decent numbers.
 Not my thing but it would sell well I bet.

The Volvo F86 is my guess too, although I'm hoping for a Mk5 AEC ...

I will crack on to Macon and finish it.  I need someone to re-do the decals as there was some bleed through
