Hi everyone, I'm Ray. I saw Gary's eBay advert and responded based on the fact that I had just seen a Miglia sold at Ascot Historics auction.
I am very grateful to Graham (Alex) for showing me around and taking me out for a run in his gorgeous Formosa. I have owned Caterhams for about 20 years and going out in the Formosa was like driving the Caterham for the first time - or like getting a new bike as a kid !
Gary has been kind enough to let me assist in the non technical work to allow him to use his skills more productively. It's a bit daunting at the moment (I didn't build my Caterham) but Gary is leading me through the process and helping all the way. He also appears to be a bit of an eBay Ninja as he somehow finds stuff that I can't.
It's good to start a build thread. The Vitesse is a good quality donor car in the areas that we need it to be. As Gary mentioned, I'm hoping to be assisting weekly and getting thoroughly immersed in the project !
