"Hello This forum is a great find and its good to see so many 428s still around. I can help with the whereabouts of 3 more that my father owns.
He has CF 79 (PJ 611), a car he bought twice. He sold it in the late 70's, but then saw the same car in appalling condition a few years later and bought it back and restored it.
He also has a fastback but I am unsure of the chassis number. However I remember him telling me that it was the last fastback off the production line. (CF 74)
The third car is the prototype convertible with pop up lights that was built in 1982. (CF 81)
The white car in the second picture is an AC Greyhound which completes his small collection. You could say he's a bit of an AC fan.
All the cars are in good working order and while not used regularly do go for a run several times a year. We've done a fair bit of work on all of them over the years mainly changing all the fuel tanks and rads from steel to ali because of corrosion.
Hopes this helps the list of remaining 428s."
