A sobering thought and motivation to crack on if ever there was...

Haha... Hi Colin... I find myself in the same place.... Poor car in the garage ( although not the sauna!) and I find myself with a long list of "more important" projects.... Mainly house renovations, but by the time I finish a days building work I run out of energy to then get out in the garage... I...

The "Home office" says we can do B&B at a favourable rate..!!!! Although I have no idea what her idea of "favourable" is!!!!

Hope I'm not breaking any forum rules here but wanted to share this. I have a great couple of chaps who are local to me and are providing a guiding hand with my S2 bodywork. They are time served metalworkers who have spent their working life doing bodywork restorations for all sorts of classic cars,...

Classic Jaguar for sale... one careful owner, never raced or rallied... ideal investment opportunity..!!!

Is that what they call a burnout???...

Very nice.... tho trying to be a 735 does that mean it really wants to be a little combine harvester!!!!

So electric cars in England, Hydrogen cars in Wales and traditional petrol cars in Scotland then!!!!

Could you not use a UK or EU based family member to insure a vehicle and put you on as a named driver... Be that your own car or a cheap purchase for the duration? Would that then give you a fixed point of contact/base from which you are travelling.? Then check if an American driving licence covers ...

So anyone know the lucky owner... ? What a nice job. Looks lovely

Morning all and a happy New year. Whilst it's not so good at the moment there is light on the horizon... Question time.. Importing stuff from America to the UK... If I order some panels from Monocoque Metalworks, can anyone enlighten me as to import duty, vat, etc etc that needs to be considered ???...

" I don’t think painted wires would shave had the same effect."
I'm curious as to where your mind was exactly??? Or is that just an innocent typo...

Well you've certainly found the right place to start with... Lots of fabulously knowledgeable people and lots of interesting projects to view for inspiration. I think the E type world is one to be very careful of leaping into.. Like alot of classic cars you need to decide you either have a large som...

What a lovely film of a lovely man and his memories.....

Sire...thank you for the photos. Very much appreciated. May have to wait till I can restock on material, unless I sacrifice the gate material, which won't impress the Home Office. Now I maybe wildly wrong here ...but do I detect a smidgen of envy from the touchline??? "Blind leading the blind" .... ...
