Few guys from a topic in General chat wanted some pics of this, so thought I'd post here, rather than post off topic.

Here you go, from rust bucket to show room example in 4 long years.




















Finally completed and on show at the NEC classic car show.











And being used as intended - complete with upgraded XJ40 gearbox and a few other bits that make it drive and stop better.

Lovely car, I was going to say it's a shame it's an auto but when the alternative is a 4 speed Moss box I'd take an auto any day biggrin

I've never been a fan of the Series III until I saw yours. Sublime in silver with the CWW's and not-too-fat tyres.
