Finally its finished

Post by Thomas L »

Finally I am finished and the car is back on the road after almost 2 years of resto. I am really proud of the result and wish that once I could visit the UK to attend a car show to let You see it live. Its an amazing colour and truely an amazing car.

Thanks for all the help this forum has offered me, I had been really difficult without the help I have got.

Especially Alan from Canford Classic has been very very helpfull, thanks Alan.

More finished pictures to come........
