LG61 1981. For full and deep restoration.
Hi.
I have an Original 1964 Soft Top 1964 withspecial plates : (ANTIQUE). Now I am buying a LG61 1981. The car looks great and keep its original canvas. I am going to start this project for a full and deep restoration. The ideais at the end one LG61 100% Original and in Perfect condition. For now the car will be for me, but maybe I can consider sell it to a Collector, Museum or something like that in or out side Colombia.

Congratullations! It looks amazing.

Looks museum quality as is. Far rarer than a restored model?

Re: LG61 1981. For full and deep restoration.
Thanks. I want keep but my wife say that I have too much Clasic Car since this year I finished one Austin Gipsy 1962 ( for your reference I am posting a couple pictures). I am going to work in this LG61 as hard as possible thinking that it is for me. At the end I will decide what is the next step.RiverPatrol wrote:![]()

What a beautiful Patrol! It is in excellent original condition. I'm sure it will look even better after you finish the restoration. Good luck with whatever you end up doing with it. I think you should keep it.
