PS, is it the same stuff I refurbish other thing with like window lift fixing plate, battery tray and other bits of black in the engine bay.

Hi Can anyone suggest a spray paint for the Bezel and Finisher quadrant on an '89 convertible door. It looks like its been repainted in the past and is a bit rough and flaking. I think it's meant to be a satin paint? I've been taking the offside door and window apart to free up a seized lift (all do...

Hi BB, Sage advice indeed, and what a beautiful result. I've just started talks with Mr Hallett about a wish list. And in my dreams (make that hallucinations) I can see me assembling a stablemate - 6 speed manual, v12, convertible in shiny, oh so shiny fire engine red with every bell and whistle and...

Hi Pop, You're right of course, It's just that 'I want it all, and I want it now !' to quote Queen. I thought of door cards because they're a mess and thought it was a job I could tick off. The ! because ebay had door cards at £400 with 31 watching. I'm a bit of an all or nothing sort of guy so it's...

I'll build my own as the correct materials are available. Probably repair and re-stitch the seats myself too.

Thanks again guys. AK.

Cheers, AK.

Hi Guys, Pulled the door cards as was having a few challenges with door locks and windows. Found they're in a bad way caused by water, PO's ?, brute tinkering etc.. The cardboard is warped, torn, creased etc. What would be the beast way to refurbish these (would want to keep as much of the original ...

Thanks for the welcome Paul. Just trying to figure out how/where to tell the ongoing story, my posts can't all be in arrivals

Hi BB,

Thanks for the welcome, seen you around a lot in posts, I take my hat off to you and applaud.

It went into storage pre me having a digital camera (sounds like the dark ages). I'll take some photo's tomorrow weather permitting etc. it won't be a pretty sight.

Cheers, Alan.

Hi Everyone, Bought Thomas 2001. Dream come true. Followed the most important mods as per the sainted Kirby Palm. Was my daily driver until 2005 when job change meant he had to go into storage some distance from home. lack of time, money etc. meant he was sor'd. Couldn't bear to look at him as I fel...
