We have a very full workshop at Templar Towers as we come to the end of the year. We seem to be having a bit of a Mercedes theme running through our projects lately; having waved farewell to the superb Mercedes 300SL roadster, we’ve picked up again on the (what will be) gorgeous 1958 220S cabriolet as well as the imposing 300SE convertible.
The 220S has had cast aluminium A-posts and dash fitted, as well as it’s chassis. Next it’s the long process of paint preparation, panel fit and re-fit, before final paint. It’ll be finished in two-tone tobacco brown and silver grey and will look stunning when finished.
Meanwhile the imposing 300SE convertible will be travelling along a similar path in the New Year – more on that over the coming weeks.
Alongside these German classics we’ve made progress on one of our favourite Swedes, a Volvo P1800, which has been through epoxy prime and first prime stages and a second P1800 has been in for a few minor jobs.
Finally, the Alpine has had the oil leaks from it’s auto box and engine fixed.
Wishing all our customers and friends the merriest of Christmases and the very best for 2023!
