It's taken an enormous amount of work - Lead engineer Bill Smith, said
"This project is 22 years old this year.
"We've been 15 years in the rebuild - five years to strip down, catalogue and clean, and ten years since we set the first rivet to bring her back to this condition.
"This is a fully working machine, completely original. This is the vehicle that Donald Campbell drove."
The man who rebuilt her says there is a malevolence about her, 'like an evil witch'. They say Donald Campbell was a superstitious man who thought it unlucky for people to wish him luck. The Campbell curse.
