Opps , due to computer error I deleted contents of our car and projects

    This page will be rebiult ....one day , but till then a few samples

                     
sorry some of the pictures dont seem to be working at the moment, seems vista doesnt like my format 
                                 


 Our G reg Gti.......   Lots of work went into this, ongoing project



    

 
    

  
 And the Vr6 Vento....

   

  
 

 

   And when it was just about finished  , like the golf.

       A STUPID driver , who couldnt stop behind DID THIS

  

     The floor pan was so badly damaged , and new parts notavailable,
      So the insurers (of the other car) decided , correctly , that it was not repairable
     and paid out the agreed value (£ several ????.00)

   

  So now we move on , with other cars...

                             SHELLEY'S RACE CAR

another project, rush job for British Autosport show at NEC
Had to be done over Christmas...... The Shell  was bought as Salvage as it had paint stripper all over every pannel, which, appart from the work, didnt matter as it was going to end up these colours anyway


























 More pictures available of whole painting process by clicking on the picture above

    The actual painting, after all prep, flatting and masking etc , to apply the three colours , then the clearcoat laquer took aproximatly 6 hours.
 When I get time I will add pictures of each stage of the painting ,
  and more of the car at the N E C in Birmingham with the windows, roll cage etc all in place

     WATCH this car on Sky Sports Rallycross programme in the spring/summer
     Shelley was LAST YEARS British Minicross CHAMPION ,
     She has gone up quite a step to the 2000cc class for this coming season
  Brett, (the owner of the Vento Vr6) is race mechanic






                                        Yet another  "project " is the 

           manufacture of a stainless steel manifolds

     pictures here show the process where our 'friendly' (some say) engineer who also has a workshop in the same yard as ours, is working out the fabrication of a show manifold for an old
Bedford CF  van .  We hope, wit his assistance and tig welding skills to do one for a Vr6 soon
           as they say........  Watch this space 



                                   
                                        

                               Manifold 'tack welded together' , bolted to jig  ,
                       ready to offer up to car and tweek  to ensure it all lines up ,
                              then it will be fully welded and pollished

 .   When we get round to it, you will be able to click on picture , to open a gallery of pictures
                            showing the process from scratch to completion

                   (  not yet finished , )

       so I loaded all the pictures to the computer, deleted them from the camera,
       didnt back computer up, never had need........

     COMPUTER CRASHED, TERMINALLY , lost the lot










and another project, using skills aquired whilst managing a bodyshop which did  accident repairs and restorations and modifications


   Mk 1/2 golf wheel arch flairing, rolling and pulling

    Rolling the arch lip and pulling out and up to give more clearance for larger/wider wheels
and for lowered suspension

    



 pictures show  a front wing with arch completed and painted
 (we obviously have facilities and capability to do anything from minor scratch to, welding ,
accident damage to  full body restoration  and repainting to high standards ....)
 

 The pictures cant show the high standard of refinishing, that you would need to come to see
