Re: Morris Marina Custom Retro Rides
Where has this gone?
It may well be worth saving as a TC saloon and restore it back to what it is meant to be.
Looks hideous as it is it has every 70s mod going by the looks of it. Some OK some bad.
Body looks good though and has most of its trim.

I think what PAUL said is the best idea to put it back as it should be then there will be another TC on the road.

Looks like it got kicked by a field of horses and left their shoes behind I like the mk1 Escort rear lights on the panel though!

Re: Morris Marina Custom Retro Rides
Seriously though, its looked like that for most of its life, certain things would need to go (that steering wheel for one, replaced with a period sports wheel ala carbar) but I think get it running and driving and clean it up and leave it alone, a period piece from the 70's!
