Wondering what happened to it, anyone? My son now works for Hagerty Ins., and his boss just bought one, which p...

I'm just starting the process of ordering a front and rear glass for my car and was wondering if anyone else in the united States need glass.

Greetings All. I am investigating the purchase of a new front windscreen (or windshield for you USA natives). I have been in contact with Pilkingtons who seem to now be part of the NSG group.

Hi guys, just wondering if any of you are familiar with Mr. Robert Wadmans former car, I don't know the chassis #, and what you think of the asking price at BHCC. It seems a little high to me given the overall condition and the missing parts but I have unfortunately never seen the car in the flesh, so to spea...

Since relocating to Northern California we have been consumed with house things, but we did manage to stretch the legs of the Warwick and drove with 50 vintage sports cars through the Sierras. Other than loosing a coil, the Warwick performed great....well, it could have had more power at 9,000 ft. ...

Does anyone know the number (or rough number) of Peerless GT's that are remaining (phase 1,2 and Warwick). I am aware that there were roughly 325 cars built, but I get asked often how many are remaining. Keith
