I live in the USA. Been restoring British cars for 45 years. I would love to find a nice TF or TE21 saloon in LHD. Been looking for many years. Very few here to start with. This car here is a big job ahead. It looked simple in rapid frame video, but so much work has been performed. Can't wait to see her back to full loveliness.
Thank you for your support Doug, They are a lovely car, later this month there will be/ should be a video covering a fair amount of the metal work we are currently doing. All the best Chris
Wow, your team made that paint stripping look easy. That is why I never buy a car with a shiny paint job if there is no proof of what it looked like before being painted.
Depends on what we are trying to remove in all honesty, paint stripper barely does anything to body filler so if we know there’s plenty of it in a panel we will sand it instead. Best Chris
Search EBay or a Google listing for ones for sale, they don’t come up that often to be fair, the costs of restoring one are very much like asking how long is a piece of string ? It all depends on what the car needs to make it right and what the client is prepared to pay for. The cheapest way to restore one is to restore it yourself. Hope this helps ? Many thanks Chris
i like all old British cars 👌👌🇬🇧🇬🇧👍👍
It's amazing how a beautiful paint job can mask such a multitude of "sins".
Cars such as these deserve such painstaking restorations.
Well done.

Thank you 😊
Starchem Synstrip is the paint stripper we use.

Why do you use paint stripper on some parts and not others?
Depends on what we are trying to remove in all honesty, paint stripper barely does anything to body filler so if we know there’s plenty of it in a panel we will sand it instead.

Can someone just give me a rough price, what's the cheapest I can buy or restore one of these cars?
