Deal
Welcome to OOF
.This one is midnight blue with tan leather, I'm going to keep the colour the same but although the seats look in good nick I know of someone local who can refurb them completely, I'm going to keep them the same colour but will have the leather in the "diamond quilted" pattern that can be seen on most Bentleys.Keep them original, Mick.
^This!^
How original though?
Say, for example, you replace points and coil on a sixties classic for electronic ignition. Or modern tyres and brakes.
What Rangie describes sounds like an 'acceptable update' to me.

.Or shaking hands when you get out
Now now, we don't want poor old Rog to have heart attack or anything!
Absolutely not. A nice sedate Morris Minor Woody should fit the bill. Picnic rug and a thermos flask and some bread to feed the ducks.
Mk2 is better looking than the MK1 in my opinion..
Sounds like a good buy.
Is it the 2.8V6.....or the 3 litre 'Essex V6'
X reg is 1980/81 I think.
.The Granada is being collected today & going straight to a bodyshop where my mates MGB V8 is almost completely restored, I have decided to go for a complete restoration as well he wanted the best MGB V8 in the UK so I want the best Granada Ghia it will take a while but it will be a stunner eventually..👍Sounds like a plan, Mick. Can't wait to see the results when it's done. Are you going to drive it or keep it as a show car?
My first car, a 1980 Renault 5 GTL produced about 500bhp and went like stink!.
