Thank you! Its definitely a favourite colour combo of mine :-)

It is a little bit lovely 😀

Sounds like your Dad knew quality when he saw / felt it! Where is that car now? You need to get some film in that camera! Im also a wedding photographer and use a 1970s Olympus OM1 film camera loaded with b&w film as a surprise 'treat' for my couples (to supplement my Fuji digital cameras): not easy to nail a shot with a manual focus lens, but SO lovely to use: as you say, its that mechanical shutter and winder, just bliss! Analogue over digital for me whether for music, cars, cameras... 😉

@@martynsboostedswedes Yeah. He was always into quality and gadgets. :) Sadly, i traded it in almost 20 years ago, after one local repair place fixed it until it was broken. :( I think I still have the VIN somewhere, so i could always do a carfax to find out where it ended up. At that point, i ended up getting a VW Cabrio which was fun when it worked, but now I want to get a 900 convertible to mess around with. My dad shot with Hasselblads and Nikons usually. Putting some '220 in the Hassy would be nice, but expensive. I did modify an old Phase One digital back to work on it though (I have a video for it here on youtube). Although I'd love to get a proper digital back for it. :D

@@yorgle stick a film in it, you know your old man would like you to 😀😇

Thank you mate! 😀

Thank you mate, much appreciated! Fingers crossed indeed! 😀😀

Ha ha, yes - such a satisfying 'thunk' 😝

Thank you mate, it's getting there! :-)

Yeouch, hope you were ok! I think I'm good for the trim, but thank you anyway :-)

Thank you mate! My bro's 2 door has been awaiting us to work out the logistics of when (and where!) to put it, but it will be recovered / 'rescued' from SAABFLIGHT soon! 😜
