    4 years of pain and it's finally done - HQ Sandman Van

    Hi all just had to share this it's been a long 4 years but I am very proud of the outcome
    308 4 speed matching numbers
    Complete rebuild on whole car
    No show car as I built it to drive and tried to
    Keep everything as original as possible
    My wife keeps asking why I sit here looking
    At it all the time
    I was very careful when answering

    Sorry put this in the wrong section
    I'm new at this and obviously a little simple

    Well done, awesome job. Looking at it is what it is all about! Driving an old HJ isn't all that much fun compared to today's cars! Every time I get on the Premier I remember why I drive a modern car every day.
