John (Lord) Harding used to be involved in organising the NBO.

He used a restoration place in County Durham, Keith Flint Classic Cars.

Stu that did it wasn't best pleased when I told him I thought I had a fuel leak around the tank, after I'd picked it up.

The Greenwagon went to Keith flint classic car restorations at annfield plain Durham
I did my research and wanted an old school classic restorer rather then a body shop

Do. Search on my posts for loads of photos and detailed work on what he did on the Greenwagon but I'm delighted with the end result

Yes I was the bloke who ran the NBO for 11 successful years
Pity the lot that thought they could run it better then me could not maintain the high standard that I set
