Hi there. I always wanted to own a kit car, and recently I got what I've been dreaming about for so long. One beautiful Locust, and it's mine all mine...
I bought from a guy who took it back with him from England. The previous owner left it sitting in his garage for some time so it needs some work. I'm right in the process of "restoring" it. After having some difficulty importing it (because it had a dreaded Q-plate registration) I finally managed to get my license plates.(found a revision of the registration law that states that "if a date of manufacture is not know, the date of first registration will be used as actual date of manufacture"). I have attached two pictures of my car as it was when I bought it.
I wasn't able to drive it yet (not even illegaly) because the brakes were lodged very, very, VERY) tight. In fact, the pictures are taken right after my brother in law and me forced it of the trailer....
