Just to encourage you: buddy stopped by today with his 41 110 coupe with just 43K miles that he has owned since the sixties. We just conspired on a ring and valve job on it to freshen it up.

The car is a pure delight to drive with easy steering, effective brakes and a smooth ride. Underway, the engine has a nice burl as you take off from a stop but is pretty much unnoticable at moderate speeds. MUCH easier to drive than any of the senior cars that I have tried and because of the light weight, pretty well as snappy. The lack of sidemounts is a huge plus as far as being nimble is concerned.
