Hi everyone! It's been a little while since we've gotten around to writing a new blog....that's because we've been quite busy on several fronts. This is a good thing! Time to post a little shop update -
We recently completed the repair work on the little '64 MG that we were working on. It was finished in time to attend "British Car Day" at the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix last month. We also completed the initial build-up of the '72 Morgan 4/4. The engine starts and the car moves 9and stops) under its own power. We trailered it over to our friends at Portage Trim in Revenna, OH to have the interior work done. We expect it back in early September at which time we will complete final assembly and testing. This is a beautiful little car. The paint job turned out extremely well....more to come on this little beauty in the near future.
We have also focused some major effort on completing the wiring and interior structures for the '46 Chevy Panel Truck. It is due to be sent to the woodworking shop for some finish work on some interior components and will then be sent to the Trim shop for the interior upholstery.
We've also made a major push on the 1938 HRG Coupe. It is our goal to have the coupe running and mechanically functional by the end of the year. Because this in a one of a kind vehicle, we've had to do a significant amount of fabrication, fitting and refitting to achieve a "period correct" look and functionality for the car. We've hand fabricated the exhaust system, thermostat housing, Fuel delivery system, kick panels, foot boards and transmission tunnel. We still have some interior work to do as well as the sunroof, side curtains and electrical system. There is a long way to go but we're making very good progress.
Finally, there is the 1962 Ferarri 250GT Lusso. We received the car back from it's alkaline dip. It has been fully prepped and primed and is currently undergoing some minor bodywork. We should be ready to start on the assembly of this drop dead sexy car in the near future.
Stay tuned for more updates!
