Fantastic Heerey GTM now for sale

Back in early 2022 Andy Parkinson got in touch about a derelict Heerey GTM he'd found and planned to restore. It certainly was a challenging project but Andy cracked on with it and really surprised me when it was finished and back on the road within a year or so. He tackled just about everything on the car, apart from the paint as he left the body in its 'as found' condition, which I think is just marvelous. We found out it was an early Howard Heerey-built car with the correct chassis plate and registration. It was sold in 1970 but only registered in 1974 and on the road up until '89. 

Andy surprised me again this week, when he announced to offer the car for sale. "Yes Jeroen, I sadly decided to sell it. I have my Mk1 Mini that's on the road and also an AMC Cub to restore so something has to go due to lack of space." Well, it certainly is quite a chance for somebody else to own a freshly restored and fantastic car now. See the ad here.
