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.

Anyone able to upload it onto here? PLEASE :D

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 :? :lol:

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.

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
