Thanks man, just putting the finishing touches on the interior, stick a few pics up soon.. TBH I've been spending most of my free time driving it
I must be the only one that liked the green ☹️ Twed fella you have done fantastic with it A very enjoyable and inspiring thread
fantastic resto love your colour , some serious details , am in DERRY , do ye know Bertie lyttle ballyclare mate of mine morris minor man
PO here. Finally getting the chance to go through the entire thread in detail. Bought this when I was 17 and pretty much left it to rot with being at university etc and not having the time or the money. Hats off to you Tweed for your work on this. It was heartbreaking to part with at the time but after seeing someone put so much dedication and attention into this, then I know it was the right decision. The result is stunning and I'm looking forward to seeing the finished interior. FYI: "An absolute pig to remove, held in with more welds than the titanic!! Damian if you reading this your name was mud for about an hour or so round here.lol" Had nothing to do with me. Dodgy work of the PPO, with which I'm sure you more than familiarised yourself with over the course of the restoration
Absolutely fantastic progress, It's work like this that has kept me revisiting the forum, The standards achieved are second to none,
Nice to hear from you mate, hope your well. That PPO has a LOT to answer for.. Glad you're happy I gave her a good home, she's my pride and joy and I hope to see you on the road sometime soon
Hello! back again... finally getting a chance to sort through and upload a few pics of the last step of this restoration.. the interior. Started with a straight edge to work off Decided to put the spare wheel here for the extra bed space Extended the heating vent Tambour door kit mounted in frame Fitted over rear cargo Rescued this sink from a skip Tambour door kit in main cargo area Rear hinge cover
6mm ply Unused door cards on the inside of the cupboards Carpet liner Covered in stick on vinyl Boxed in.. Sink fitted Inside finished
Fitted the rock and roll bed, how the bed will look Filler bit, leisure battery hidden behind. 5mm deep hole for some knock on edging on the worktop Bonded Carpeted Just about fits
Made a tank for the diesel heater Welded up Level sensor Fits in the spare battery tray, a full tank will get you a few days of heat Drilling holes in fresh paint My Gran approves
Curtain rail bent to separate the cab and cargo Last bit of wiring Socket tower Bench seat/storage Air vent Reading light Hinged to allow access to the curtain
Made a centre console out of some old 12mm ply Included some cup holders, USB port and a wireless phone charger The top is also the back of the bench seat Bit rough round the edges but overall I'm happy with the finished product
Few cab pics Ready for her first show Loaded up for her first festival Sunflower festival 2018 Taking my assistant and parts women out for a spin.. AKA Mum and Dad North Coast Well thats it folks.. My next post will possibly be in the modified section tho I'm happy enough my only job being to keep it clean. Thanks again to the people who have given me advice along the way and to everyone who posted words of encouragement.. Cheers Tweed
