Default tbs -series one restoration

ok folks , my name is tariq and i run tbs in middlesbrough , its my own body shop,paint shop ,

this is my series one project ive had for around 8 months , i bought it with the intention to just tidy it up and use it everyday ,

but it never seems to work that way


all the matal work was done by karl graham formerly the fabricator at blueoval garages , whos since left blueoval to start up for himself ,


anyway , ill try and find some pics of when i bought it , but heres some pics of what karls done to the shell,


t


the car underwent major surger to nearly all of the shell , including :

new

front panel ,wings , inner wings , scuttle panel mods, inner sills ,outer sills ,new inner rear arches , new outer quarters, new back panel , replacement wheel well , floor pan sections , inner sunroof tray new inner fuel filler section ,ect ect ,

anything that couldnt be bought was made

some pics of the rot

















ill post more in a moment ,

tariq..
