As well as restoring my own cars, i help others.
These are jobs I have to do during 2009/10.

Currently helping on this 1932 Rover 12.
It stood unused for decades before being discovered last year.
Our job has been to get it running & presentable before the trimmers get it in April.




As reward for doing this my friend Nigel has been given this 1935 Standard Ten. Thats our next job.
Fix the leaking sunroof, & get it running.


Coming soon I plan to replace the tired chrome tail lights and fin chrome on my Mercury with some NOS ones I got.


Then this 1937 Daimler Db17/1 needs 4 new doors making and a coat of paint.


Whack the dent out of the rear valance of the Vauxhall Victor.
My fault I reversed into a post.
Then cure its recent unreliability. Oil gets into the distributor and onto the points, and then its goodnight.


Then this 1963 Series VI Oxford Estate has to be painted and the worlds most knackered engine replacing.


At some point my Trabant needs a full paint job & a new exhaust too.
