Fellow Owners,

I've started this year the restoration of my long time friend.
At this time the car is almost finished just wainting for the engine to been assembled and put in the car.
Can´t wait to drive it!

Obrigado!
Thank you. Also seen the pictures of your Minor and you did an excellent job.
Now is getting very dificult ($$$$) to restore classic cars, with the escalating prices of the shops. It´s realy a case of madness :) to restore one! It cost me probably more to restore than the real market value of the car.

Um abraço,
Best regards,

She looks lovely!
You must be very pleased with your hard work, wait till you are out driving in the hills, everyone will be waving at you and talking Morris Minors! Especially the older tourists,
Enjoy her!
