Default 340 YouTube Series

Good morn chaps,

I've dropped in from the Amazon and 200 series sections where I normally reside. I started doing some research on potential future projects the other day and came across this YouTube series (I think there are 8 episodes in total) covering a garden-find 340.

Perhaps you chaps already know about it? If not I thought it might be somewhat interesting.

The chap doing the recommissioning has concluded it isn't worth him continuing any further, which is a pity.

Alan

Thanks for posting this. I loved working on this little car and was so proud to have saved it. Unfortunately I just couldn't keep it. I am not sure if you still follow my channel but you will see why soon, space is a concern. Plus I have to think about content and moving things forward. Thanks for watching the series.
I had my 940 at the time and also still have my lovely 1964 Volvo amazon, there is a series on that if you haven't already seen it.

Many thanks,

I do follow your channel, in particular the Amazon and Jackman's 244 projects.

Excellent work, thank you.
