for passing his MOT with no advisories, he gets new gas struts for the tailgate

Brilliant treat is that. I always use SGS for my gas struts on all my cars past and present.

Not worried on that account,she's had four chances in the last few years but she called the ambulance on every occasion, guess she really does love me. Found this picture of the workhorse pre gate post damage, happier times

That looked like a nice P38 and in my fav colour too. Currently looking at one in the same colour too.

You know what I will say about that

polishing down to the primer sounds painful

@frog hopper hand sanded 3 1/2 of his wheels down before realising he was using sand paper wrong way around and had no finger tips left

Had to finish them all the same

Stunning finish though

Had a look for the slight and intermittent water leak into the rear quarter where @gold rover suggested on another thread.

Found one missing push in type clip which leaves a hole in the car body where it should clip into and all the centre locking pins missing from the black clips (you know the ones)

I found a spare clip I had lying around from somewhere and printed some new centre pins for the black clips

Don't think I'll need to wait long too see if it's worked.

I suspect our Enry has polished all the paint off and you are looking at the primer, he likes a clean motor

I like a clean motor

Those Turbo R Olympians are indeed rare albeit the colour and the interior are all the same and IMHOP as a previous Bentley owner and now a Shadow 2 owner it was a tad too much for my liking. The folk who order these cars new are loaded and have no taste sometimes. Their tastes can sometimes ruin a cars future value as it can put folk off. Have you thought about having a machine polish done first on your P38??? this can sometimes work miracles and save you a bloody fortune. I had a car done a few years ago which was red and flat and it came up lovely and only cost me about £300 i think. Plenty of really good valaters out there today WHO KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING where as most DONT. Just a thought option for you buddy.
It was nice and dry and sunny yesterday so i took my Rover P5B and my Shadow 2 out for a drive to exercise there legs.

Bloody pi**ing it down today.

I've had a few look at it, and most recommend a respray she had a hard life before I got her, hence the cheap price!

She shines up well, but the scratches and dents are more than skin deep

She a good 10 footer

This is/was the worst.

A bit of this,.

The result.

It is still there "sort of" when the sun hits it, but eh it's an old 4x4!

The paint on the NSR wing is also the wrong colour...

she's had a few paint work bodges

I knew it wouldn't be dirty for long. Mind you I'm just as bad.
