moonfleet aquila 6cyl.
While I'm getting a dab hand at posting pics I thought I'd post one of the Moonfleet's progress.

Phenomenal. I thought it was too ambitious when you took it to Cardiff when you first got it. You should post a before pic just to show how much you have done.

What a beautiful looking boat "Congratulations" - how long has it taken you?
Re: moonfleet aquila 6cyl.
Nice work - look forward to seeing it at Cardiff - and we like the searchlight as well!

Simmonds fitted from new with what, I believe, is the only running factory marinised Daimler 2.5 litre V8 (as fitted to the Daimler SP 250) in the UK. Please let me know if you find another! Believed to be Norman Buckley's race boat.

Re: moonfleet aquila 6cyl.
Hi Again , here is a "before" pic. taken 2 miles down road from where I picked it up and saying to myself "oh no what have I done" but it took me 18 months to get it to where it is now ... it was shelved for over a year due to lack of funds and the recession affecting my job . etc will try and post more pics soon of interior before and after really hoping to get it ready for Cardiff ...but maybe a static display only ! my son (4 yr old at the time) named it after saying "when will the rusty boat be ready dad" ? ! ah I thought nice name !
