First post here, so not entirely sure what the etiquette is, but thought you might be interested in knowing about the restoration of my 1965 Amazon 131. I've had the Amazon for 19 years now, and for most of that time it's been my daily driver, living on the streets of London with all that entails (rain, leaves, minor bashes from people who don't know how to park, scrapes from passing trucks).

Finally this spring decided to give it the restoration (and mild customisation) it deserves. It's being done at Romance of Rust, in Ealing, west London, and I think it's going to be really tasty at the end of it. Not sure yet how to post photos, but I'm going to try to attach a pic of one of the wheels, so you can see the colour and general vibe. I'm keeping a full record of the project over at Autopendium, here: http://autopendium.com/vehicles/3-1965-Volvo-Amazon-131-two-door-
Would be interested in your comments.

Thanks
Chris
