andydclements 813 Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Great news. You'll have to show it to us, that's 3 TEs within a few miles on Norwich on the forum. Please tell me it's red, blue is getting too common for them round here. If you need a hand, just ask. Andy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So we can expect a new thread in the Project and Resotration area, right? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
andydclements 813 Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 You went for that one then. In that case I'm glad I mentioned it. interior doesn't look bad in the pics, engine- Who needs an engine? Andy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Buddsy 1,657 Posted September 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Talon, New thread...might need a new forum!! Andy, yes the interior didnt look too bad in the pics, worse in real life but if you swint it looks a whole lot better . Same goes for the body work. Maybe instead of resoring the car I should just learn more photoshop techniques and do it that way? My hands will keep much cleaner Quote "Belief is the enemy of knowing" - Crrow777 Link to post Share on other sites
Backmarker 6 Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Great stuff. Does Andy's response mean its the red one on e-bay? If so, exterior and interior looked ok. Good luck with the restoration. Graham.
