Oi, Wibble!

Post by bigginger »

I was trawling the 'net, and happened upon the Morris Minor appreciation society picture page on Facebook. I think I've found where Juliet nicked the idea for her van...<br>Image<br>

I'm used to people um, borrowing pictures and using them - I've seen it done with mine, but just thought I'd let y'all know about this one :D

Permission was very politely asked by one of the owners of the group :D

Watch out Big Man cos one day you will glance out of the window and a technicolour van will whizz past, with Someone waving airily at you... :wink:

Well as some were provided in primer for the companies to put there own colour scheme on technically any colour is OK although it may not be a 60's paint colour :wink:

Dulux Chas I thought you only used Leyland Paint :D
I think you need to ask Fred about concours, although I beleive anyone can enter, but you may lose a few more points than him :lol:

No afraid not Bill just that he can give the rest of the branch a few (well a lot) pointers if we would care to listen as brush finish is a preferred option for some and bodging is an art form in this branch :D
