Looking good, love the colour. I think I may spray my pick-up that colour when I get round to rebuilding it.

Just had a phone call to say that my powder coating is ready to pick up so I can hopefully get the woody into a rolling shell in the next few weeks and push it out of the garage as the garage is full of rusty dust and it needs a good wash and clean.

I am getting the front Morris grille chrome powder coated so it will be interesting to see the result of that when it comes back- photos will follow.

 

Does anyone have any MK1  fresh air heater box ears and a flap knob for sale and mine are missing from the one in the woody please.

 

More photos to follow once I get cracking on the front and rear subframes and suspension.

Fantastic work, would love an estate! Are you sticking with the original steel wheels Victor, or how about some shiny OEW Reverse Rims?!?!

I am sticking with the original steel wheels, they have been powder coated old English white and I think i might use the van small hub cap instead of the original full wheel trim as I love the look of the old English white with the surf blue.

 

I have just got some powder coating back from Bettablast in Shiremoor Newcastle and the results are fantastic, I got my Morris pressed steel grille chrome powder coated and I am over the moon with the result so I have added some photos for you to see.

My plans next are to build all the suspension up to a rolling shell then get it to a bodyshop for colour coat inside and out.

 

Than save all my pennies for a new interior from Newton commercial.

 

I will keep you posted with photos of my progress.
