Current state of play

Series 1 3.8l roadster.

Ground up restoration complete. Prepping for sale.

 

Series 1.5 FHC.

The original car I started this blog for.

Finally completed. Final test drive today; it is beautiful. Ready for sale.

 

Series 1 4.2 FHC.

Having rebuilt the engine and gearbox, we finished assembly on Friday. First test drive was good. Motor is quiet and responsive and the gearbox is precise.

Never selling that one!

 

MGA.

Finished and tucked away at my Dad's house for winter.

I really like this car. Probably keeping it long term too.

 

So.

What next???
