That really is a top job, well done. I'd say his Dad was really chuffed.

Fancy coming over to Dublin to do mine next? :D

What a Great Thread, Well done.
Lucky that when the car was fully stripped there were no dings or rust? If so that is very special :!:

I was so sure that I'd read it there..... Then I picked up Practical Classics (13/2011), where it's the cover car, and realised that was where I'd seen the story of this amazing refurb job. :lol:

So yes. :thumbsup:
