Ex LRM project with galvanised chassis, new suspension and braking system, shame they didn't paint it !

Decided to have some fun and turn it into a soft top

Sometimes ebay pictures can be misleading, tilt is a bit 'brighter' than anticipated Cool

These blue canvas hoods can be great with the right paint combination. Last three pics (a 1964 109 series IIA with 1 ton wheels/tires) looks as close to what yours could look like with a paint job. Thumbs Up
