Californian import

Postby simontdo » 10 Dec 2015 12:26

My TR8 finally went into the body shop a month ago (3 months later than planned) and I'm told it will be home for Christmas. And I can spend the next few weeks putting it all back together again!

Here's some progress pictures...

It was Poseidon green underneath.

That's the colour its going back to.

I'll be dropping into the bodyshop tomorrow afternoon to take some more pictures.

I'm hoping to get it back before christmas, but its looking doubtful now.

Lots in that colour around here. I guess they match our Pacific Northwest forests.
