1960 Austin Healey 3000, BT7, Mark 1

This car was a 5 year stalled project in a well known Jaguar restoration shop in New England.  The client called us and asked us to handle the removal from the other shop and all aspects of transportation, appraisal and completion of the restoration.  The car was partially restored with improper panel fit and welding. Shrouds were repaired and welded in place totally out of alignment.  All aspects of the prior shops work was incorrect and poorly executed. 

In order to finish the restoration, we removed the floors, sills, and patches. We realigned the frame and refit the floors, rockers, sills and all patches.  We cut the welds out of the aluminum shroud and repaired the shrouds with perfect gaps for the trunk and hood lids.  Engine was rebuilt, line bored, balanced, performance tuned  and well sorted.  Client was very surprised at the additional power, since we took the liberty to built this motor to BJ8 specs.  Car was finished to match its original build sheet and Hertitage certificate.  Total time for restoration in our shop was five months.
