Another one out the door. Nothing too crazy on this pristine, low mileage VW Corrado G60 except for some front bumper grazes and poor paintwork on the rear quarter panel. No problem for us though!

Little repair from last week on this Aston Martin Rapide. Absolutely in love with the colour, I think I need to paint something of mine in Almond Green.

With the helpful expertise from spot on prep work.

So Brett had a bit of an oopsy moment in his Dodge Tradesman B100 van so had no choice but to repair before the sunshine drives.

A little corrosion to sort as well as while we were there.

Luckily I had some paint left over from when
worked his magic on a bare metal repaint a few years ago.

Another job, jobbed!

Big moment today as the early 1950s Austin-Healey 100 has left Jax HQ. It was an absolute pleasure working on such a pretty car and getting it exactly how I wanted it, all sporting Lotus Cherry Red.

Back to Matthew for final fit up and finish, and of course fitting new wheels previously painted here 🫡, then back to me for final detail, polish and a good coat of wax ready for sunny days ahead.

Of course a huge huge thankyou to .t.1980 for helping me getting this project in the direction I needed it to go.

Eyes peeled for the next one on the chopping block... 👀

So as some of you have probably seen, the Healey is being put together currently. But what you've not seen is the panels freshly painted! So here's a little look at the panels before full flat and polish to get the glass finish we wanted.

Apologies for been quiet for a while, but thats not the case in the workshop. Its manic, as per usual.. some projects cooking up that ive kept under wraps (all to be revealed soon!)

But here's a nice simple job from this week, 1979 Honda CR250 tank and side panels, in base and clear, Tahitian Red.

Stay tuned as next week there will be even more red.... time 👀

No, its not painted yet, this is just in its final coat of epoxy primer to seal in the polyester spray filler. Next stage would be to tear down all panels from the chassis, prep insides and all edges ready for a hi build primer.

I must commend .t.1980 for helping me on this one as I must say its looking pretty f*cking nice 🤤

Cannot wait to see this one painted 😍

Yet another Dagenham Dustbin I've had the pleasure to work on and awaiting collection. This particular Es**rt Cosworth is a genuine, 18,000 mile, factory group A rally car.

The factory Diamond White paint was looking very tired indeed and in need of a couple of repairs that needed blowing in, trying to keep as much original paint as possible. Along side a full machine polish and paint correction!

I am a sucker for those morette headlights though...

On the next project I suppose...

We finally got the 510 into paint last week. Been with me a while this one but after hours upon hours of prep, bare metalling, fabrication work, and welding, priming, more prepping, and whatever else I had to do to get the inside of this car looking its best for to build up and hopefully see the road very soon!

Took a lot of my patience this one, but I'm so happy we stuck at it and the results speak for themselves! Do it once, do it right!

Another retro Ford everyone's Dad has had, to go through the workshop. XR2, 33k genuine miles, totally original yet very tired.

So let me loose with getting this absolute timewarp back to its factory finish. I properly enjoyed tinkering with this gem, with a full glass out respray, and engine bay restoration to be enjoyed for many years to come.

Kinda miss it already...
