Re: Ruby Special


Dave,

Sorry, no, I do not have any pictures of the rear! I really should have taken more pictures. The back is the most important and does look very pretty and very different! It is sort of boat tail with a sharp centre line and sloping down a bit towards the back. The hood folds down to sit on top and it looks very good. Terry made all thehood and fittings.

Terry is a contributer/user of the Forum and I will Email him and ask if he has more pictures - I'm sure he has.

Bryan.

Re: Ruby Special


Here are more pictures of Terry Smith’s superb Ruby Special. Please note: the trimming/upholstery is all Terry’s own work! He told me his mother was a dressmaker and he watched her at the machine when he was young and the machine he used for the trimming on the Ruby Special was I believe a standard home sewing machine – wow!

Re: Ruby Special

Bryan,
Thank you.It's an excellent job and the upholstery is very well executed. I wish that my efforts with a sewing machine were half as good.
