Few cars earn the kind of universal admiration showered on a certain svelte 1970s British grand tourer, often hailed as one of the most beautiful designs ever penned. So it is a small tragedy that one V12-powered example was left to languish, abandoned by an owner who apparently lost interest in preserving such a remarkable machine.
Happily, a younger pair of enthusiasts stepped in to rescue the forlorn coupe from further decay. Revival projects like this are deeply satisfying, marrying respect for automotive history with the hands-on reward of bringing a sleeping legend back to life. With fresh stewardship, a car that once seemed destined to rot away now has a real shot at returning to the road where it belongs.
