Thanks mate! The TR is a great car.
The sprite in the foreground is the same one in the other pic before I painted it.

My latest acquisition. Also have a TR4 and a frogeye sprite.
Nice find, had a 10 like that myself once upon a time. How's the bodywork beneath the green mould, doesn't look too bad in the photo...

The ten is really not bad at all. There are a few rust spots but nothing serious. I have to rebuild the engine and then decide whether to restore the car completely or just fix is and drive as is forms while.

The 2002 is my daily driver, hence my being in Sainsbury's, when I spotted this CSi the other day.







While I'm here, this is my e12 520 auto. It's a lovely example and am about to sell if anyone fancies wafting around in it this Spring? It's such an understated and stylish car.







My e30 (which arrives in a few weeks)



18 mths in and the e21 is finally going to be painted very soon. Please excuse the stretch tyres. They're being replaced with wider ones.

Very nice Woody, also do I detect that you've sprayed in the chrome strips under the sills or was that not your MGA?

It was just called "Bright Orange" not sure on the actual code, and it is non-original.
