1968 restoration
hi just to keep in the loop of the 1968 restoration project began by Gordon Hunter who basically rebuilt a shell the pictures tell the story i cant even begin to imagine the man hours he put into this car. I am pleased to say the car is coming now closer to completion as the body was completed and painted in Ipswich and Robert whitton is cracking on with the build

Love the P1800 dashboard. Do give us a little engine detail, looks like the old girl isn't going to hang around.
Thanks for the share |

That's a serious amount of work there and the car's going to look superb when finished; more pics please. Q? What seat covers have you chosen/which supplier? I'm wanting to rebuild a new set and am looking for a seat refurb' Co' to cover in leather.
