The Harvst Gold/Primer Gery Marina certainly gives a touch of class to your area.
That blue car looks very nice, an easyish resto?

well I have a good luck at it today and come to the conclusion I know sod all about marinas...

The plan was to do the latest one and ride about in it and do a good resto on my daily driver....

But a lot of things I do not like on the new one ,simple things like ,the boot locks everytime ,the seatbelts I cannot just throw over ,no servo ....But I can change them over....

I noticed the wipers are the other way round ,why did they do that?

I think mine been a year later is a better car...

It has plenty of holes and the clutch is to the top ,the previous onwer knew this cos there is a clutch kit in the boot...And brakes are siesed...

so not that bad , ...

I cannot start for a couple of weeks , but that will give me time to get bits and pieces...

National is that a car show ? ,I don`t think I can drive them both...

Phone a friend!! The National is down nearer you. Check out the club site for more details.

Yeah they changed a few details for 72 on cars. Sounds like you have an early Mk1 mate. Quite hard to find!

Once you get stuck in give a shout if you need anything!

Hi

Further down ,just before you get to St Ives....I have seen their webpage, they both certainly look like a bit different....

Found the club site ,trouble is if you come straight to the forum ,you miss the front page out... :shock: 8)

That leather is such a nice smell when you get in a old classic car.... 8)
