Yes mate good article. Shame they didn't name Frank as your painter, they just write that you said a mate did it whose got a body shop.

Thats strange as id told them to mention Austin Morris Services etc and to include a contact detail..

Anyone able to upload it onto here? PLEASE

Just got my copy, (good old Tesco's)

Yea quite pleased with that overall, bit more of an article to what other mags have offered for the Marina over the year i reckon so all good

Frank has had a mention (just as Austin Morris Services) and including his work number so bit better to strangers than just "Frank the paint man"" i guess

not sure about the dodgy looking bloke with the long hair tho :?

Great article, lovely car (looks a treat with the D1s). Nice to see some more positive press coverage too, well done

.
Oh by the way, I remember an article in Practical Classics a few years ago comparing a Marina TC, Mk1 Toyota Celica 1600 ST, and another car, possibly an Opel Manta? Were you in that? Or do you have a brother? Its just that the name seems familiar.

Think that was Phil from memory-Who is Gary's brother.

Blimey! well remembered, yes it was my brothers car at the time, but i was there on the day of the shoot myself and could be seen sitting as a passenger, that must be about 18 years ago!..?

Was a mk1 Capri, Celica, Manta and the TC
