Back at the grindstone after a few days away, the Aston DB6 Vantage is well on the way to being prepared for its repaint – the old paint is almost gone, after which it’ll be mechanically stripped before it goes in to the metalwork shop for body restoration and then repaint. Meanwhile another famous British sports coupé, this gorgeous Jaguar XK150 has been in to sort out a carburettor issue and get a tune up. Looks fabulous in red! Finally for this week, our 308GTB is in final primer and panel fit before heading into the paint shop, where it will go back to its original black. #astonmartindb6, #db6, #astondb6, #classicastonmartin, #jaguarxk, #jaguarxk150, #classicjaguar, #classicbritishsportscars, #ferrari308GTB, #classicferrari, #classicitaliansportscars, #templarclassics, #classiccarrestoration.

We’ve been working on some of the most prestigious marques in motoring lately. We’ve begun stripping down the Aston Martin DB6 as we begin a complete restoration on this iconic British sports coupé, it’s going to be with us for some time. The Ferrari 550 has been having interior panels refitted, while our own 308GTB is now in final primer, having had a new engine cover fitted and we’ve also trial fitted the doors. All being well it should be in paint by the end of this week. Finally for now, we’ve also had an elegant Mercedes Benz 380SL R107 in to get some electrical issues and water leaks sorted out. Fabulous cars, all. #classicgtcars, #classicsportscars, #ferrari, #ferrari550, #ferrari308, #italianclassics, #astonmartindb6, #astondb6, #db6, #britishclassics, #classicbritishgt, #mercedesbenzr107, #classicmercedesbenz, #germanclassics, #templarclassics, #classiccarrestoration

The Ferrari’s keep coming in, mostly for servicing; meanwhile our initial hopes of getting our own Ferrari 308GTB ready for Goodwood proved to be in vain, as it’s needed quite a lot more doing than we’d originally thought – it has been off the road for two years, though…as it is, it will be getting a replacement tailgate engine cover (currently in bare metal), and the deep front spoiler is also getting some attention, before a full respray. Thanks to the almost incessant rain it’s been difficult to take decent photos, but among the classics currently filling our workshop there’s the Mercedes 280SE 3.5 which is now just waiting for new tyres before setting off on a European tour, our long-term Porsche 912 project that’s edging closer to completion, and one of our more unusual visitors – a 1942 Willys Jeep – in for new leaf springs and wiring. #ferrari308gtb. #ferrari308, #ferrari, #classicferrari, #maranelloclassics, #mercedesbenz280se, #mercedesbenz111, #classicmercedes, #stuttgartclassics, #germanclassics, #porsche912, #willysjeep, #templarclassics, #classiccarrestoration.

A full yard at Templar Towers at the moment, with lots of Ferrari’s in for services, belt changes and other minor work, and a very elegant Mercedes-Benz 250SE 3.5-litre in for check over ahead of European Tour - a perfect touring classic! #ferrari, #modernclassicferraris, #modernitalianclassics, #italiansportscars, #mercedesbenz, #classicmercedes, #mercedesw111, #templarclassics, #classiccarrestoration

We’ve had a yard full of cars coming and going over the past few days at Templar Towers, most of them for minor work such as servicing or small repair while we carry on with our longer-term restoration projects. We’ve had two very different Volvo’s – a sturdy, upright 1965 P544 and it’s sleeker and smoother cousin, a '71 P1800. The Elan was our own car and has now gone to a new home, the lovely 1975 Bertone Alfa GTV 2000 has gone back to it’s happy owner and the Ferrari’s keep coming… #volvop544, #volvop1800, #clssicvolvo, #swedishclassics, #alfagtv, #bertonealfaromeo, #ferrari, #italianclassics, #lotuselan, #classiclotus, #britishclassics, #classiccarrestoration, #templarclassics.

We recently worked on one of the oldest cars we’ve ever had at Templar Towers, an Austin Seven. It came in with a leaking fuel tank – we found the leak, re-sealed it and refitted the tank, and also fitted a pair of new brake cables and gave this charming little car a service. And this elegant Mercedes 190SL is ready to go home after having had a service, work done to the steering, been fitted with replacement engine mounts and a new radiator and had the brakes sorted out. It's now ready to enjoy for the rest of the summer. #austinseven, #britishclassiccars, #mercedesbenz190sl, #mercedes190sl, #germanclassiccars, #templarclassics, #classiccarrestoration

After the Ferrari focus of the past couple of weeks, our first post this week features possibly the fastest - and lowest - wedding car ever! After giving it a run – it sounded really sweet! - we were delighted to return this fabulous Lotus Esprit to it’s owner in time for his daughter’s wedding – and very proud he looks, too, of both the car and his daughter! #lotusesprit, #classiclotus, #weddingcar, #classicenglishsportscar, #70swedge, #templarclassics, #classiccarrestoration

More Ferrari fun at Templar Towers over the past few days. We’ve had a Testarossa in that was suffering from poor starting and running; turned out the ignition module had failed and the starter motor was getting a poor start up trigger, which will need the wiring loom modifying. A 1998 Ferrari 355 F1- already a modern classic – came in for a cambelt change, with the engine being dropped out to enable belt replacement, and what an engine it is! #ferrari, #ferrari355, #ferraritestarossa, #classicferrari, #classicmaranello, #italianclassics, #templarclassics, #classiccarrestoration

Focus on Ferrari for this weekend’s post, as we’ve welcomed a number of Maranello’s finest into the Templar Towers workshops, starting with a couple of 355s – one for an oil service and the other for a new cambelt. We’ve also had a 550 in for a cambelt change and to fix oil leaks from the cam cover seals and cam seals, which necessitated removing all the camshafts. Finally, our own 308, which has had new cam belts and brake calipers fitted and undergone general recommissioning ahead of taking it to the Goodwood Revival next month. #ferrari, #ferrari355, #ferrari550, #ferrari308, #classicferrari, #maranelloclassics, #italianclassics, #templarclassics, #classiccarrestoration
