1968 Triumph TR250
1968 Triumph TR250. Body and paint restoration by Britsport in Spring 2009. One owner car for the last 35 years. Extremely rare factory American mags. One of the nicest, tightest, well maintained Triumph’s I have ever driven. The mapping/taping/painting of the bonnet stripe took the most of two days to accomplish.

Austin Healey 3000 BJ8. Driven into the shop. This was a old redo by a not so talented home restorer/car flipper. Completed covered in thick sheets of all-metal style body filler that covered several decades of rust, old repairs, sins and shenanigans.

1974 Jaguar V12 E Type. Brought into shop completely disassembled with body and paintwork partially done by another shop. Every component of the car will need to be worked before use. Paintwork has since been completed by Britsport and assembly of chassis started. The V12 is fully rebuilt and installed with a 5 speed conversion. The car will also be converted to SU carbs.
