Kev does like chocolate. Too much for his own good.
That's what kicked off the "How many fingers" challenge

So ....all the parts have been assessed and laid out in its new home and about 80% of the car is original with few parts missing ...lucky!!! ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/12/05/thumbnail_IMG-20201205-WA0019.jpg) 12 hp engine..and it turns !!!! The plan now was to settle in to a winter restoration at its new home and as this is a Morgan Forum may not be of interest to Talk Morgan members....but...there was one unopened large box remaining!!!! One box remaining to go through and investigate,,, One box which will interest any owners of classic vehicles what ever marque they may be,, One box that would subsequently lead to a very unexpected turn of events.. To be continued.... (3.48am Jon) - " one box to rule them all....." You have been reading too much Tolkien , Kev.  James

It'll be the FIA competition papers .... and the documentary proof it won the Monte Carlo Rally with Moss at the Wheel, Senna as navigator and Nikolai Tesla as head mechanic! .... but it was all hushed up  K Well electric 2CV's are quiet  Perhaps Kev's undertaking an EV conversion ?

It`s either a new home for the ferrets or the Christmas Curry & chips consignment.  What did the snowman say?  "I can smell carrot."

Morning... In a previous episode... There is one large box remaining..a box that contains the heart and soul of the 1954 Slough built Citroen 2CV... Its the proof ,if proof be needed,that one of the reasons that a classic car of any marque is much more than the sum of all the parts...the history of the car and any information on previous owners is like gold. This box was full of history...of somebodys pride and joy: Among the many documents...the original Registration Document: ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/12/05/thumbnail_IMG-20201205-WA0030.jpg) The original workshop manual was included: ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/12/08/thumbnail_IMG-20201205-WA0025.jpg)

Every Tax disc was catalogued: ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/12/05/thumbnail_IMG-20201205-WA0028.jpg) Page after page of running costings: ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/12/08/thumbnail_IMG-20201205-WA0032.jpg) And one important item that would lead to a totally unexpected twist in the saga of the 2CV : ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/12/05/thumbnail_IMG-20201205-WA0035.jpg) To be continued.....
