Restoration of a 1937 Morris Eight Tourer

This car has been procured by me in 1st week of September,2012. It had been jacked up and kept in a garage for last 28 Years. The restoration work done in last 2 months is reflected in attached pictures. I have used "American White Wood" for restoration of this vehicle. As on date surfacer has just been put a couple of days back. More pictures will follow in subsequent weeks.

Meticulously restored cars, hats off Sir. Any history of the MYO regd car? Should be a Bangalore car when new.
