I'm sitting here with restoration books all over the floor like ducks on water. I've been following the " How to restore TR3A" for the most part with "How to improve..." thrown in for good measure.
So far the frame has been repaired and a Neil Revington kit installed. Blasted, epoxy primed and top coated.
I've dipped and reskinned the doors, epoxy primed and 1 coat of 2k primer. Also obtained 4 new hinges.
I've read/seen where alot of guys replace 1 floorpan and sill at a time. I've also noticed some guys cut the car in half at the transmisson and go from there.
I have the floorpans and inner/outer sills and thought about mounting them to the frame and build the front, attach the doors and reset the rear for door gaps.
I haven't made my mind up yet on which way I'm going to go.
So what I'm asking for is your experience, comments and warnings either way.
Thanks, Gordo
