The end is in sight

Another quick photo update of David & Matt's T3 resto:

 

 Cutting new strips to rebuild the bottom edge down the long side.

A rear end to be proud of! (note this work has taken several cuppas to get done!)

Factory-fresh looking rear corners - no more seam rot for years to come.

Hopefully off to paint any minute now. Keep them eyes-peeled for the return of a newly painted bus.

Progress...

Just a few more pics of David & Matt's resto:

Time to peeeeeeeel off the howies stickers:

Back down on all four wheels after cosmetic surgery:

Looking forward to getting this off for paint this week, prep, prep, prep...

More metal mastery...

There's only one way to sort the seam-rot on a T3 - get completely rid.

This is how to do it right:

Make like Bruce Lee and chop chop chop...

Front arch now done too:

If you've got rot that needs removing get in touch now.

Bad metal out, good metal in...

The resto goes ever-onward - that infamous T3 water-trap behind the front bumper, sorted.

Them holes that start to bubble up under the window rubbers, sorted.

Cab-steps once again made of metal:

But there's still a way to go yet...

Don't forget, if your van is starting to resemble a teabag, get in touch today! We can work wonders with welding and magic with metal.

More updates soon...

Matt & David's Mini-resto

There comes a time when you've just gotta say 'enough's enough'. That blue tape is fooling no-one, those seams have seen far better days and if I don't do something soon there'll be more holes than metal.

So it's time to welcome back to JC Towers the old faithful T3 belonging to lifelong customers David & Matthew.

The brief? Simple - a shiny van to go to Bustypes in. Can't say fairer than that. Expect some major surgery occurring during the coming weeks.

In she comes!

Hittin' Switches

Check out Bryn's latest ride:

A sweet '66 rolling on hydraulics. Freshly purchased and straight into JC HQ for an inspection and safety check - remember kids; running low can often add more problems to suspension and drivetrain - get it checked out!
This is one ride with plenty of Rattitude - keep your eyes peeled for this one scraping the streets of West Yorkshire...

Alan approves of the front safari screen and the pro-biotic yogurt aged paintwork.

Car of the week...

Oh Lord, won't you buy me... a 240z

It's not just an appreciation for German metal here at JC Motors - we love the occasional retro-ricer too!

Now where did I leave that spare $125,000....?
