A bit of a break from Ferrari’s for this week, starting with the Marcos 3.0 V6, which came in for a carb rebuild, have the rear trailing arms re-bushed and to fix a slow oil pressure build up, and we’ve been doing some pre-fit work on the DB6 ahead of it being painted.
Meanwhile, head gasket failure on an MG Midget has resulted in this oil and water flavoured caramel milkshake! We’re now having to rebuild the engine, having already had the block and head re-faced.

The emphasis has been firmly on Ferrari this week, with a 355 in for service and belt change and a Mondial having it’s ride height lowered by having some new adjustable shocks and springs fitted.
Our latest Ferrari restoration project, a gorgeous (well, it will be!) 250GTE is now in primer ready for final prep – thanks to Adam Redding for top class work.
Meanwhile we’ve had another of our favourite Swedes in for a new servo – we’ll never tire of working on these stylish Volvo’s.

Quite a few Ferrari’s in at Templar Towers this past week for servicing and odd jobs, such as the 308 in for a refresh of suspension and interior. The Marcos – not a marque we see often – is in for a general inspection and a few odd jobs, and the Volvo 544 for a rebore and new pistons – lots of variety to keep us on our toes!

Some very fine cars have come into Templar Towers this past couple of weeks. Have to start with the fabulous and very rare in the UK French classic, a Facel Vega HK500 that has just been bought by a client who’s asked us to give it the once-over.
We’ve also had a delightful silver Ferrari Dino 246 in for a service and inspection, we have it’s big brother 308 in for a suspension refurb and meanwhile the interior is being fitted in the equally lovely Pagoda – we get to work on some beautiful cars!

A very busy run-up to the Easter weekend here at Templar Towers. We’ve got a couple of our favourite Swedes – P1800’s – in for a series of minor jobs and several Ferrari 355’s for service, belt changes and electrical issues – one of them having a rebuilt dual mass flywheel after getting contaminated with oil from the gearbox, another having belts and cam covers replaced.
Meanwhile that ‘70s wedge icon, the Lotus Esprit S1, has been getting a water leak and some fuelling issues sorted out.
Wishing all our clients and friends a very Happy Easter from the team at Templar Classics!

A fistful of Ferrari’s at Templar Towers over the last few days, mostly in for belt changes and servicing, but the Car of the Week was this exquisite mint-condition 1948 Jaguar 3.5 litre drophead in for a light service and replacement horns - just lovely!
Speaking of Jaguar, the XJ-S you might be able to spot in the middle of the forecourt came in for an oil service – and had covered just 1400 miles from new!
Finally, we continue to make progress with the pretty Lancia Flavia, which now has it’s doors fitted.

Second post this weekend...as well as saying goodbye to the 300se, we continue to get a number of Ferrari’s in for various work, mainly servicing, while the 360 has had a new cooling fan and rear wheel bearing fitted in addition to a service. Meanwhile the E-type is having it’s rear brakes replaced among other things as well as having an easy bleed kit fitted for future use.

A couple of posts this weekend...first, our long-term 1966 Mercedes 300se restoration project has now been delivered to it's new owner - we like to think we've done full justice to this very elegant convertible; it deserves a post to itself!

E-types galore this past week - the two red cars now running well and ready to go back to their owners, while the green series 1 has had new door hinges, some brake work and a speedo repair. It's not just been E-types, though - the Lancia Flavia had a new windscreen rubber fitted by and is moving forward and looking good, and we've had another couple of Ferrari 355s in for a few jobs, all while we've been doing lots of dodging the rain!
