Show us your project or rolling restoration

[tdskip]

We see so many amazing restored cars here, but how about those of us like myself that are, um, still sorting things out.

Be brave - show us your current project!

Getting closer.

Tom,

How about a few more "after" shots of yours?

Nice job, rlan!! I love the green on that car.

Well, that is pretty much how she looks today except the interior is totally out....

 

[TRDejaVu]

Interior should be finished this weekend.

 

[SCguy]

Not really working too much on the TR4 lately. I've got about 500 miles on it.

 

[toysrrus]

Hey rlan,

She sure does look sweet!

The pic of the body shown in a room with the "French Doors"; Is that your Living / Family Room?

I ask cause I`ve never seen French Doors in a Garage.

The paint code looks really good.

Walk out basement maybe? I see columns.

Or maybe a "roll it in" basement

Looks excellant.

The progress on the TR250 has slowed lately, but I haven't posted for a few months either.

Here is the new right rocker, new left rocker has been installed as well:

Here is the repaired battery box, was a big hole when I got the car, new metal welded in, short strand fiberglass filler to smooth it out (waterproof also, great for going over welds):

I have since primed the engine compartment and will paint it soon, motor is back from the machine shop, cam goes out for re-grind today.

If you remember "way back' when they first showed up . They said they were doing the build in their walk out basement.

I just signed up at photobucket.com so I apologize if these links don't work. Let me know if there is a problem and I will fix it. I'm starting to weld in new metal now. Soon it will be dripping in POR-15. And then back to the storage unit while I work on the frame.

Here's my project car being winched onto
a flatbed. After this photo, the dead car was
rolled back into my garage.

My car knows several flatbed owners on a first
name basis Ha, Ha, Ha !!

 

[StupidHippie]

Oh the shame....

What can I say....the TR6 is running so well I had nothing to do but drive it so I bought something to swear at.

If I say it's for the Missus will y'all let it slide?

[tdskip]

Nice guys!

And Rob, you are forgiven...

 

[Brosky]

I readily admit it. I'm a closet MGB admirer. Certain years and colors only.

There, it's out in the open. I can breathe again..........

 

[pa297pass]

You guys have seen this "before" picture already ...

I'm still working on the "after" picture. :smirk:

[apbos]

Here they are:

Each is progressing, but '49 TR is my favorite.

Paul
P.S. I had to put in the AH. My wife thinks it is cute :thumbsup:
P.P.S. I need L&R F fenders for the TR3a

 

[Number_6]

I'm not sure that this really qualifies since I'm not activly restoring it anymore (actualy want to sell it) but here is the restoration that I had been working on for many years before I bought my current car a TR3A.

It's a '68 Jaguar E-Type 1 1/2 OTS:

 

[TR6oldtimer]

Slow but sure steps on the 6.

This was a pain in the ... to do.
