Wow. that's a really difficult one. I managed to find  some details, but I really can't tell what the vehicle looks like. So this is my version. I hope somebody will be able to improve on this, perhaps somebody wiith an enhancement app.

Talk about making a silk purse out of a sow's ear - that is what I seem to have tried to do.    :-X   

Sorry but can't do any better than this - still don't know what he looks like!!  :-\
 Did he have a beard??  I thought he maybe did.  But maybe not white?   

I guess you want him more than his vehicle, so . . . .    :-\ :-\

Appalling to try to do isn't it.  I see you don't think he has a beard . . . I wonder what I thought i was seeing!     ::) :-\

You've got a nice looking vehicle there Peter!!     ;D

Hard to see anything, Wiggy - distinguishing between damage and detail... not easy. The vehicle, m-m-much of it m-might have been borrowed. ;D

Couldn't get any where near what Peter did but I did 'enhance' your granda and I would say it's not a beard - gap between 'smudge' and granda's left cheek (right hand side as you look at the photo  :))
