After an encouraging chat with MarinaCoupe, we thought we'd better introduce ourselves and our latest project, our glorious Ital estate, which we'll come to in a minute.
Basically, Dep-O (http://www.dep-o.co.uk) is all about old modified machinery and it was set up by a bunch of old-car loving stragglers from the original version of Retro Cars magazine in Sept 2008.
However, we do have to admit that we are really rather badly infected with a dangerous passion for BL cars. So far the count includes one Ital estate, an Ital pick-up, a Marina Coupé, a Mini and a Landcrab and still the need for more is not going away. In fact, it's so bad we've even made a video celebrating the glory of a B-series Marina conversion which we're also covering, see: http://www.dep-o.co.uk/marinavid
Anyway, getting back to the estate, we have been on the look out for panels for the Ital - have a look for yourselves at http://www.dep-o.co.uk/page207.asp - without much success, so after being pointed in this direction, we thought we'd come and say hello.
As soon as we've given the old girl a thorough going over, we'll no doubt start posting requests for bits and pieces because going on first impressions we seem to have arrived in Marina nirvana...
All the best,
Dep-O

Hello yerself.
Nice website you have - and raucous applause for the content - especially the Charlesworth treatise on Clarkson et al.
There's no stopping idiots doing what idiots do - but we can refuse to play the game.
When asked if I have seen the latest Marina destruction on Top Gear, my reply is; "Oh yes - very droll. I wonder if he would find our Granny incinerator such a hoot.?"
Just 'cos they're old, doesn't mean someone doesn't care for them...
I shall certainly be keeping tabs on developments at dep-o.co
Congrats to all concerned.
Cheers,
Kilroy

Might be my 'other' magazine as currently I subscribe to two and buy others on an occasional basis. Yours looks interesting though..
