This will prob be hijacked and end up in banter but here goes.

Been busy working on SLK at home and needed to use a 4 post ramp so my friend Jonathon suggested his workshop. So Thursday afternoon I borrowed a nice Audi Estate and shifted it down the road to JLH Motorsport.

We spent all day Friday working on different jobs (I will cover these in the Readers Projects section.)

Here are a selection of photos from the day! BTW Jonathon's main business is Restoration and Modification of Morris Minors, he is the legend who helped my devolope the Brake kit I have! !

Easy to get jobs done with plenty of help and a warm workshop in December!

I thought Minor people developed a serious rash after fixing Marinas... :D
Yes, what a nice workshop, needless to say that in this weather nothing is done to any of my fleet, including my main drive.

With the increasing difficulty in repairing modern cars without the necessary computer etc many of the good independents welcome old cars cos they can work on them!

Looking good Beniboyz, looks like you have a crack team of pros working there for you, shame about the 'rash' outbreak which has halted all development :shock: :lol: :lol: :wink:

Beniboyz,
Cannot remember were we going for just the single turbo or the G60 supercharger, think the latter would work best if we go for the 8.2 V8 rather than the Rx8 motor :roll: :D

Well if we go the latter then we can get that Ford pro street look we were talking about! ! Big springs front and back, flamer kit? 8) :lol:
