  • The final body touches (not what you think LOL), and the body is complete. But we still have some more work to do on the frame and bottom of the car, so there's gonna be one more episode.

    Elin, the finish you have achieved on this car is truly impressive. I've been with you from the start and witnessed your skills develop so I hope you are charging a good rate for your expertise as clearly you have now achieved 'Master' status and you are in demand.😀

    Great work Elin.. It's already looking better than the TR-2, 3, & 3A I used to own. Bolt-on's are very convenient at times, but they do move around when you drive over rough terrain. I remember in or around 1967, a small company in the UK made fibreglass replacement replacement panels for the early TR's, but they never caught on for road cars apart form the hardtops they made.

    Very nice work. Great seeing it come together step by step. I’ve seen body people use a wide black marker as a guide to where the highs and lows are. Doesn’t have any thickness and sands right off. Anyway, impressive, nice job.

    @harpersisland Před 2 měsíci

    You’ve done a great job on this which I believe is your first TR3, maybe you’ll make a habit of them.
    As for the small issues with fitment, what do you bet these left the assembly line with many just like it that quality control would miss or ignore just sending them off to be shipped.
    Good luck with frame.

    Let's hope the paint shop won't slap 3cm of body filler on the fenders now. With your preparation, a light coat would suffice :)

    Looking really good Elin!
    Btw, I may have mentioned before, but you should check out Carter Auto Restyling. He does some amazing work with just a hammer and dolly, and a little shrinking disc and bulls-eye pick. Excellent tutorials and explanations.

  • @alanm.4298
    @alanm.4298 Před 2 měsíci +1

    Elin, have you ever used an oxygen acetylene torch to shrink metal? I watched a YT video about it the other day. I think it might have been helpful on some of that fender work.
    Oh, and that's a HUGE new toolbox! Very cool! I'm jealous!😊
