Stuart Izzard has been one of the stalwarts of the UK Retro scene since it first had a name and probably for some time before that. His Mitsubishi Sapporo became one of the most well known cars in the UK scene, appearing at many shows, in magazines and in many photo galleries. Stuart sold the Sapporo earlier this year, so we've all been very keen to see what he did next. We caught up with him at the Retro Rides Ace Cafe meeting and were not disappointed with the work so far, and there is more to come from this build.
