    Hi
    I am about 4 weeks into the resto of my 1973 sunroof van - which now has a westie top.
    She is rusty in all the usual places and rain entering the sunroof has made its way south and all the rust that follows from that!
    Ive had it since last november as i was looking for a new project....
    I also have 1963 Porsche 356B and and a 1971 Triumph TR6 which is Ford 302ci V8 powered
    both of these were basket cases and resurrected by yours truly!!!
    regards
    Brian

    Welcome along Brian, Galway is a lovely part of Ireland, an old neighbour from Derby moved over there in the 90's, Oranmore I think was the village name.

    If he's still with us, his name is Steve Collins, he had a per in restoring one of the Opel Manta 400 Andrews Heat for Hire Rally cars, ADZ4330 with a school nr Galway.

    Hi from West Lancashire - we have always wanted to travel Ireland in the bus - It's about 200 years since my ancestors left so about time I did it.

    Hi from Derbyshire. That sounds like a great collection of motors; I bet the V8 TR6 is a bundle of fun :)
