I wish. Silver Clouds were always one of my favs, but they're priced a bit too much for this broke assed old hippie.
Didn't that belong to one of the Beatles?
 
I had the UK variety with the 6 Lucas fuel injectors. I used to have to retune it on a weekly basis. I still have a special spark plug with a window that allows you to see the colour of the flame in the cylinder. Used for tuning.

My 1961 Mk IX Jaguar had the six replaced with a 400" Buick Nailhead, but still had had dual Lucas pumps that required regular point filing and adjustment. I especially appreciated how easy Lucas made their equipment to work on, but disliked how often I had to. I also learned how to trick the Lucas pump on the fly when it suddenly quit. I would just switch back and forth between tanks several times rapidly and it would usually stir the Lucas back to life. I also learned to switch tanks early, so as to hold a 1/4 tank reserve just in case.

The only thing fussier was the four wheel disc brakes that extremely advanced for the era but the brake cylinders would corrode and when there was enough pad wear for the piston to reach the corrosion, it would fail. The fix was machining the caliper and pressing in a bronze or stainless cylinder liner that didn't corrode.

I never found a nice Wraith around here in any kind of shape that this poor boy could afford either, but have always admired them. I also put dual Webber's on an dual port Ghia convertible, along with some other enhancements and love the carburetors performance through the full range, though I had to learn to operate the throttle with my toe and brake with my heel to keep it idling at rest, if I didn't keep them synced.
