WOOD CRAFT

As many of you may recall, we featured Dave Glanfield’s ’66 Austin Mini Countryman part way through its mammoth restoration early last year. Despite having many of the parts to complete the project, there was still plenty of work to do back then. As we departed on that freezing cold February day just as the rain and sleet arrived, we certainly didn’t envy Dave tackling those remaining tasks. True to his word, Dave has managed to complete a project and his now stunning ’66 is back on the road after its forty year slumber.

Dave’s certainly no stranger to taking on a major project, the previous ground up restoration of his 1963 Bedford CA dormobile camper also kept him busy for many years. “It had been laid up for 30 years, but with the help of my wife, Diane who designed the interior, we were able to finish the Bedford to a high standard and went on to win many shows too,”
