Land Rover Series 1 front wing repairs with patina | Squire Editions

In this video we tackle the very complex task of restoring the wings on a Series 1 Land Rover. Some might say the vehicle we have worked on is a piece of history and should be kept as it is, and others may disagree striving for the perfect restoration but our client (Tom's brother) wanted to try and fix a previous "bodge" repair job but to keep in theme with the 70 year old patina that comes along with age.
Watch to find out how we decided to tackle the daunting task on this Series 1 Land Rover.

No pressure doing the family's car!

Enjoyed the video but the audio let it down in places. Seemed like you were all relying on the camera mic.

Really appreciate your feedback. It was the first video we did “In house” and most certainly room for improvement. Hope you had a great weekend.

I’m personally not a fan of patina.
