Hi there,

Bought a 1974 xj6 series 2 swb a year ago. I have completely striped it down. I am going to start the body preparation this weekend. I completely striped the dash down, resprayed and varnished it. Looks great. Still need to tackle the roof lining, door panels seats and carpets. Interior is brown and paint work is British racing green.

A lot of work and sometimes i wonder what i got myself into, but it will be worth it in the end. Date to finish the car is 16th December 2012. Will post some pics of the car.

Thanks Vosi

Welcome Vosi,

Sounds like you have your hands full.
Where are you in SA?

 

Welcome, looking forward to seeing the pics of this cool project
Happy restoring and have fun

 

Yes i have my hands full. I am live in Nelspruit, Mpumalanga. Its about 50km from the Kruger National Park.

Time is the biggest problem, Getting down to working in the car. Off 5 days next week. Going to try and get the body prepped for painting, if it dose not rain. Other wise going to tackle the rest of the interior.

great hearing from you

 

Hi Jim

Thanks for the welcome.

Thanks and i am enjoying the rebuild.

Im a perfectionist and when i do some thing it must be done right the first time. When finished i want to drive a new car.

Regards
