Apart from needing a thoroughly clean and some certain area detailed and freshened up, our 1961 Jaguar XK150S engine is running and driving wonderfully. With that in mind we concentrate our efforts on perfecting the look rather than re-writing the rule book.
The once black areas have been cleaned of surface rust, masked up and coated in a new coat of high temperature black finish.
Just as we thought our work was complete and the car can be returned we discover a slight leak coming from under the car. Upon closer inspection we can see that the slave cylinder of our 1968 Jaguar E-Type has failed dropping oil onto the workshops floors but more importantly causing the brakes to work incorrectly.
We had a new slave cylinder on the shelf so this was a relatively quick fix and the car is now ready to go once more.
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Our good friend and colleague Tony at Wyatt Polishingย is very useful when it comes to pinching pictures. When he’s not busy re-chroming for our restoration projects he is often out and about enjoying the classic car scene in one of his many classic cars.
Yesterday, he visited the British Motor Heritage Factory near Oxford with the MGCC.
‘A fascinating day at the British Motor Heritage Factory near Oxford with the guys from The MGCC, the work and dedication of the staff working here is simply amazing! Building new shells for Midgets, MGB’s, Minis, E-Types and others. My own Midget’s shell ‘”Taz” came from this very factory 22 years ago.’
