Finished the Berkeley!

They needed the car for a big show featuring small cars and left me around a month and a half to take the car apart, restore the parts and put it back together.

You can see how the project went on my website:

That is an asolutely wonderful job! Congrats!

By the way, I saw a very nice, similar Berk a few years ago at one of our Moss Motors Britfest car shows here in NJ.
The guy was from New York (I think) and his Berk had been used for years as an inside display in a wedding hall. I guess little kids crawled all over it, brides stood near it and so forth. He rescued it and restored it to a very nice standard. Same little engine as your's......I'll have to look for pictures of it.

Nial,

The Berkeley you saw was Ed Koch's SE328. It won a Grand National award a couple of years ago. It was featured on the cover of MINUTIA, the Newsletter of the Microcar & Minicar Club in 2008.
