Pete,

I'd seen a picture of CBW 70 before at http://www.autogallery.org.ru/m/cmp15.htm:


But it was your remark that triggered me to recall it was featured in some back issue of Wheels & Tracks. It turned out to be in the same Readers' Forum of W&T 25 (October 1988) as a 1943 F15 with equally interesting history.

Surely CBW 70 must be the most likely contender for the oldest surviving F15, if anything else the oldest one in running, restored condition?

What "sensible offer" did Paul turn down?

Regards,
Hanno
