I wish now that I had taken a before and after photo but he had already got stuck in before I had thought about it.<\/p>\n<p>He has sanded down all of the wood and varnished it with several coats of clear varnish. It is a great improvement because the varnish was a bit orange before and he has got rid of most of the dark patches. He has fitted mirrors to the front and has replaced all the back lights. He has taken off the hinges, stripped them and spray painted them.<\/p>\n<p>This has made a huge difference. I use the hinges to judge how close behind the Morris to park my van so I am very familiar with the hinges. When I line up the bottom hinges with the bottom of my windscreen I know that I have a gap of about a foot. The hinges were splashed with the orange varnish and looked really grubby. Now they really brighten up the back of the car.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_29384\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=29384\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-29384\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-29384\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-29384\" src=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/back-view-of-our-car.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/back-view-of-our-car.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/back-view-of-our-car-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/back-view-of-our-car-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-29384\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Back view of our car<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_29385\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=29385\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-29385\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-29385\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-29385\" src=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/side-view.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/side-view.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/side-view-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/side-view-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-29385\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Side view<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The car is looking really good and we are pleased with the improvements.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My lovely husband has been doing a lot of work to our Morris Traveller.
