Hi Al, welcome, I'm not far from you. Is your premises in Neath then? Can't say I've seen anything that special around.

Hi Wyn & all, the workshop is in Hirwaun.
Used to be in Ystradgynlais. Obviously because of the type of stuff I do most of them aren't seen aroundwink
I only do one at a time now, just completed an RR Camargue & just starting a BMW race car.

Well well, under my nose all this time & I never knew. The only special car like that I've seen was a red 365 Daytona. Followed last year sometime near Aberdulais. He went up the old road to Glynneath. Wasn't sure if it was a real one or a very good replica. Is the Lusso (hope I've got that right) on your profile yours then?

Crikey.......I wish it was mine! (& yes you are quite right it is a Lusso).
The Daytona was probably one of the ones pictured - on a shakedown run I'd do Ystrad to Aberdulais & up past Resolven and over the Banwen!

Must have bin you then. That's exactly the way it went. My mate runs an MOT & servicing garage in Neath, Hoyles, just behind where the old BP garage was on Stockams corner. Theres a new big green timber frame structure going up there now. Behind there. He's got a TVR wedge too. driving

It's a 3 series challenge car, wacky repaint along with new roof & bulkheads etc.

The only wedge I've seen around used to live on the Aberdulais to Crynant road I think as I used to see it regularly when I had the workshop in Ystrad, nice looking car it was toocool

Looked & sounded great on the road.
I'm still around that way lots - my parents live in the old Forester's house on the old Glynneath road at Resolven. Look out for my battered motorwink
Feel free to call up to the workshop if you are around Hirwaun.
