Rebuilding S's in New Zealand
Discussion
Greetings guys,
We are in the middle of a long hot summer..too hot on a recent drive to have the roof off for long.!!
I know someone was interested in how many S's were outside the U.K....well we are about to get 2 more on the road over here.
Currently we have 1 S4 & 2 S3's on the road.
Jim Gamsby has been rebuilding a V8S and an S2 with a Cosworth.
Both are complete body off jobs, repaints, full interior refurbs and are looking great.
They should be on the road in another month, so I will follow up with more pic's.
In the mean time, below are a couple, along with my S3 decked out for the Cannonball run.
(Oh...it was real interesting watching some boy racers in their Jappas trying to keep up with me on some twisty roads.!)

Yep the bonnet fits....just.
The Burgandy V8S used to be green. It now is absolutely stunning, with new dash, carpets etc.
Getting parts down here is not bad, we just have to pay a bit more for freight.!!
And no, Sherpa vans did not make it this far.
I have not been in the Cossie, but knowing how Jim can set these cars up, it should be pretty quick.
Off to the Classic Car show in a couple of weeks, the NZ TVR Club has its own display, we will have aout 7 cars there.
Best I go get polishing.
