We recently purchased a slide scanner and converted about 1000 slides into jpg files and amongst them were some shots of our old 69S which we owned between 1980 and 1983. It was repainted Mexico blue by the PO (Gary Parnaby) and came with a Webasto sunroof which we had removed and replaced with a manual metal slider. It had the later model "S" spoiler and leather "comfort" seats. The motor was rebuilt by George Cairns in the late 1970's and it went like stink. When I sold it I believe it went to Sydney.
While the engine work waits pateintly to be completed I decided to get into gear on the Sunday and start the chassis restoration as planned
Got the first strut off, I am sending the alloy brakes to PMB in the states for a full refurb
Got the heater boxes done locally after buying some non rusty versions a few weeks back as they came out when the engien came out
Will have a spare set for sale when finished putting these back together.
