My restoration began February last year but although it feels like I have spent every spare hour on the car it feels like I have made very little headway. I began with a 1980 DHC v8 purchased from S&S but before I managed to get it home I found a really good 1980 DHC import from the USA. So it was decided to use the running gear from the v8 and the body from the import. I joined the TR Register and through that met another wedge nut called Gordon and he leant me his body spit, which has greatly aided my progress. Over the next few weeks this blog should have quite a few entries because I have a lot of work to catch up with.


The blue car is the v8 and the yellow car the USA49 state rust free beauty
