Pictures of my Gypsy MG410W.

Pictures taken near Ramnagara on the way back to Bangalore from Mysore.






Pictures on Day 2 of restoration: Tinkering (02-Jan-2017)

Tinkering at a garage in Maruti Seva Nagar





Day 6: Old paint scraped (6-Jan-2017)

Back in Ramamurthy Nagar






Day 20: Preparing for painting (20-Jan-2017)

At a work shop in Indiranagar for painting








Day 22: First coat of paint (22-Jan-2017)

Painter picked the wrong green color (Olive green).This needs to be changed to non military green collor.
Went and picked the right green - Wild Green

First coat is still olive green, the final coat will have right color.









Day 25 (25-Jan-2017)

Final coat of painting done. Shade of green changed to a darker one. I like it.








Day 28 - New Seat Covers fitted

Seats with the new covers fitted. Cant fit the new soft top as a part required to fit is missing. The part is getting sourced.




Day 31 

Took the Gypsy home today. Decided to drive it for a few days topless :) and not to wait for the Soft Top parts. That should come in few days, until then I will drive as is.




Completed pictures.

Here are the final done up pictures.
