Hello.
I am new to the forum and have just commenced the restoration of a 1973 series 3 V12 e type roadster. I live in Plymouth Devon and am interested to know if there are any series 3 owners/restorers in my area.
Kind regards, David.

Hello Adrian.
Thank you for your reply. Although the car is in relatively good condition I have decided upon a complete strip, overhaul, repaint and rebuild. I have been dismantling, photographing and labelling for 3 weeks and expect 1 more week to complete the dismantling. The bodyshell is going to be paint stripped and repainted during the next few months, meanwhile I can work on refurbishing other components. Therefore, I hope to commence reassembly during the early part of 2017. I would appreciate any advice regarding sourcing parts and trim, I have noted SNG Barratt online for parts any advice on sourcing quality interior trim would be appreciated.
Kind regards
David.
