great to see all that work, how is it now with the car?
is it finished or...other things to do ;-)

Hallo Rene, well to be honest yes I do have a job in between. I bought a '69'Morris Minor Van last November in London City.




Not a big job. I converted the frontdrums to discs from a Marina and have to change the headlights. When the temperture rises in spring I will do the final glassfibrework for the Grantura and will bring it to the painter for the respray.

geinig karretje, looks nice, no road tax in NL is a + too :-)

Hope you get that Grantura ready this year.

hallo Guys, I'm back. after a couple of years I found my Grantura back hidden in the back of the shed. Where was I ? right !! glassfibre work.I found someone who can finish this, planning now is bodywork, straight to the paintshop after that and then final stage at the trimmer for complete new upholstery.
