Arrived just after 11:00 greeted by a chopped volvo in American Mercury low rider style


Assortment of old Hillman, Merc's Cresta and a mk3 Cortina with V8


Al and Chris were already very busy on the Morris Eight having already marked up and removed the Roof
and just finished welding up the A Posts.

A quick look round their new premises revealed a BMW 2002 which had undergone excessive floorpan and inner rear wheel arch replacement


The Morris Minor Project from Al's Website that has been reworked into a Stepside Pickup



A very crusty Yank awaiting some Luvin



Tea and Bacon Sarnies were dispatched from a retro style kitchen complete with Pink 50's American style Fridge and petrol pump by Al's very friendly staff.



Outside the Kitchen on a rollover jig was a Classic Capri that was also getting some much needed attention



Work continued on the Morris Eight with repositioning the B post's and welding them in place so as to strengthen the roof panel before the rear window panel could be removed and adjusted to fit



A couple of other SCC members had turned up while I checked out Al's Paintshop



Inside the Paint Shop was a customer's Drag Truck a stunning piece of kit that was in for fibreglass door fitment and painting. Jayne, Al's wife informed me that Al sprayed the whole truck the colour it is now after the owner got bored with it's previous black and flame colour scheme which Al also sprayed.



A great time was had by all and it was very interesting to see the live progress on the roof chop. One of the guys I got speaking to had been at the bodyshop very early and had taken alot of progress pictures as the day continued together with a couple of vids you can find them on the following link.

Was a good day out

No pic of my Capper.....depressed now

Sorry Mr Sumo

The Sumo mobile was also in attendance



Just ignore background as it's Boxhill

Great pics & words Gazza.
It was certainly a different day from what we are used to.
Nice to be inside in the warm.

I need to lower my Capri.....

Thank you all for a great day, it was nice to put some faces to names and as we said before visitors are always welcome so no need to wait for an open day if you want to drop in. The chopped Morris was driven by Al and Chris to Guildford Rock and Roll Club on Saturday night, although they did mention something about being cold with no windows!
