Welcome! My Youtube channel is now mainly about my 1973 Mk3 Austin 1300 Super Deluxe.
This late 2 Door model was originally my Uncle Tom’s first car in 1976 but it was laid up for 40 years. I’m attempting to do it up in a single garage with basic tools, a little knowledge and lots of perseverance & patience.
My first goal is to get the Austin roadworthy. I can then take my Uncle out for a nostalgia trip back to the good old 70’s...I know that he would love to get his old flares out again..
After that I’d like to have a full restoration done as soon as I’ve won the lottery.
Please bear in mind that I’m aware that not everything I do is done the ‘best way’ as I have to strike a balance with limited finances, space, time and tools. This is what I am doing, just trying to do the best with what I have available, but as they say...don’t try this at home!
I’d recommend watching this saga from the first video in the link further below or click on the playlist tab above,
Thank You!
