Looking great, I ended up buying a Jensen Interceptor MK3 project car. I picked it up in Florida and had it trucked down. Within two days it arrived but unfortunately, as the driver was letting it down, he let it slip and roll off the trailer. The damage is not too bad, but i'll need a right side wing and front bumper.

It's on the back burner right now, I have some bigger projects to tackle.

thats bad luck.

I'd be effin livid! Do they not have insurance for any damage they cause while in transit?

They made it right. But as i'm currently working on a couple of other things, it has to wait until my 71 280SL is done.

Just a few updated photographs to show progress


Paint coming off the bonnet


Two 25mm holes - Thats why the footwells get wet !

Looks great, nice to see a decent car getting properly looked after like this!

Not cheap but it will look lovely. Definitely a "dream car" for me.

Anymore pics on the progress?
