Hello

I have some old cars, mostly german ones except for a 1954 Austin A40 Countryman who need a small restauration.

Regards from this small island
 
Vikingo, welcome to BCF. As we call them here, the Canaries are one of the places I always wanted to visit.

What got you interested in German cars? My first one was a 1961 M-B 220S. Later a 1958 220S, then a 1960 190b. The Mac and Phyllis link below tells the story.

Un placer conocerle.

Welcome to the forum! I think it's safe to say that you are the first from your tiny island to ever join us here, so welcome!
 
First of all thanks for the receivement.
I have been restoring,m collecting Porsche for las 27 years, I have also been racing with them true Europe and assisting on meetings, But I have also a small tiny Saab Sonett ll V4 and the Austin A40 in my small collection.
I also prepare classic motorbikes most of them Italian but now I have just bought a Triumph T140d who is gonna be prepared as a classic road racer.
Normally I do everything my self at my vehicles exept upholstery and the electricity.
 
Hello Vikingo Tropical

Welcome to the forum.

I found that the upholstery was probable the hardest part of my restoration of my TR3A. There is no room for mistakes as everything shows.

You have an interesting cllection of cars and motorbikes. Post some photos.
