Being of advanced years I am increasingly drawn to the quieter, happier days of my youth.
Collecting conkers in the Autumn, playing marbles in the Spring, fishing for minnows in the gentle Summer streams.
I stress that I am not actually
doing these things, I just yearn for those times.
To try and relive those halcyon days of youth I have decided to find a car of my youth, and restore it to its former glory.
Thus a blog was born. In this journal I intend to record the ups and downs, the difficulties and triumphs of a restoration of a Standard Ten saloon car of 1958.
I will document the process of a restoration and hopefully come out the other side a wiser man.
I look forward to any comments, criticisms and assistance anyone may offer.
