Mitchell 489 makeover mk11

Post by Fishabout »

Hi bought this 489 Mitchell sports new in the 80,s
Caught plenty on the old girl
Did a pum conversion way back
And thought I would give her some love in 2021
with spare stuff in the shed
just waiting on the Mitchell badge to finish her off but
I like it so far. Cheers.

Forgot to say with the pum conversion at the time she received a blue paint job.
