Sixteen months, including the cold winter ones when I couldn't be in the shop, resulted in this. :smile:

When I restored a TR3 some years back, I remember very well when it finally sat as yours is pictured in my garage. It was a great feeling, and there's something about beholding a frame with engine and transmission in place and sitting on all fours. There was a car show in Nashville, and I towed it just as it was, sans body (which was at the paint shop) and displayed it among the TR's there. There was a LOT of interest in checking it out, and plenty comments about seeing a naked car!

Congrats on the milestone!

That's where my car was at this time last year =D Unfortunately I'm still not on the road yet. If I didnt have to custom fabricate so many parts, i'd have been there a while ago, but having that finished 'rolling chassis' is a great feeling isnt it? =)
