I thought Bristol had gone many many years ago, so surprised they were still around

Always took a look at his collection as a boy.

Went to Brian's place a time or two with my neighbour for parts, what a place cars were strewn all over his field, poly tunnel workshop, everywhere. They must have been worth a fortune, he didn't sell anything cheap. Not sure if he is still around there are web site articles about him but they are a bit dated, its been about 10 years since I last went there.
