Restoring my Roadster's Bodywork
By Marcus Lasance.

My original plan was to ask the world authority on Traction Roadsters Mick Peacock to restore my roadster. I tool the car up for a quote and joined the queue. It now looks like Mick is giving up restoring or building Roadsters for good. He was however prepared to manufacture a number of panels for me.

These I have recently picked up and taken to Lee Scott Restorations in Brightlingsea, who will do the bodywork for me.
