Jody writes ‘From two wheels to classic cars, retro, to modern day machinery & everything in between. I want to provide an insight into my world & what that entails in the industry. I have a goal, which is to save the classic cars, recommissioning them & getting them back on the road. Introducing raffles to win a classic car each year. Regular giveaways too’. It’s been our pleasure to support Jody and her team with her superb restoration of MG Marshall, a 1975 Midget 1500 raffled in aid of Help for Heroes.
