"I'm not quite sure how to address the boss of this great site! "Dear Mr Nelson" - "Hi Doug" ... Which do you prefer?
Anyhow I was wondering whether you would be interested in this photo for a challenge.
It's not torn or cracked, but I've found it a pig to get right.
It is a photo of MG No.1 the very first MG car, taken in 1953. My Grandfather was one of the main players in the building of it.
No problems with permissions or copyright, family photograph.
My grandfather is driving it, the lady second from the right is my grandmother, as to the other people I'm not sure who they are; would that be a problem.
I have also included a half finished restoration that I am working on, none of the strange red artefacts have been removed, but it gives an idea of the colour of the beast.
If it's acceptable, then great!
If not, or your snowed under with photos, then please accept my apologies for wasting your computer space and your time.
Best Regards
Steve (Robert Stevens) Alias "Shalford"
