Today a elderly chap came in to work with his old minor. It was a 68 traveller.
The paint was very tired but he asked if I could repaint it. Anyway I liked the fellow and his car so I said yes. He is picking it up tmw as I finished it tonight. I havent got any pictures but ill try and get some tmw.
Its nothing special, just cream but it should make his day.

Its just to prove that sometimes people help out even when theres very little money involved. It seams that in this day and age unless you have a deep wallet owning classics can be difficult.

Must have been in basically good condition - if no prep work required! Before and after pics will be interesting.

it was in very good condition just thin paint. I spent 12 hours fixing prepping and paint. Considering its only a blow over and he parted with £100 he is happy and the mog looks better for a few years.
