Don't know him,
was a chance meeting.

Hopefully the stripe will be left alone.

Spotted VXD again at the weekend,
It has been resprayed,
the vinyl roof and stripe have sadly been removed.
Such a shame as it looked like it was a very original car.
They are only original once.

Yes, it did look like a very clean car as it was, but the owner will always know what level of originality versus perfection they want and are happy with.
