Just to keep this thread alive here are a couple or 7 more photos.
About 10 years ago I acquired a couple of pallet loads of certainly 50 (probably more) year old 6"x 2" teak, it's lovely stuff and my father is a bit of a amateur craftsman and has build some wonderful things from it. With this in mind we decided it would be nice to have the tub lined in marine style teak decking: ![]() Click image to enlarge ![]() Click image to enlarge ![]() Click image to enlarge ![]() Click image to enlarge This is part way thru the process, these pictures where taken during an offering up moment. there is more to do to them yet. ![]() Click image to enlarge Here we can see further progress with the front end and the new door top capping's. ![]() Click image to enlarge ![]() Click image to enlarge Finally we are thru the braking problems we have been experiencing, we have lost so much time on those. 2007 90 Puma - Love it - Best car I have ever owned. 1989 Ninety 200tdi - Love it - Second best car I have ever owned. 1951 80" Series 1 - Love it - Third best car I have ever owned. |
