Re: Steves Morris Traveller 1970

Re: Paaro - Morris Minor 1000 1957 4 door restoration

Re: Traveller Restoration

What you are doing and have done is really good, especially the pictures, they show how to do it, rather than read and have a go,as a visual learner this is very useful to me,
good luck and keep welding ! :D
