My auto Inca Sprint.

[Reg]

Got the new log book today, I didn't have the old one..three previous owners.

[Lee Flintoft]

Wow!

Where d'you get the magic shampoo from? It's come up a real treat!

[Reg]

It went off to Autonet7's workshop today for a few months.. Here are a few lovely pics of rust..































On it's way..





Resto pics to follow in due course..

[Autonet7]

Holy s##t Reg, I didn't realise it was that bad

Only kidding of course. Rest assured it'll come out of my workshop looking a lot less rusty.

So when do you want to collect it. Next Saturday ?

Of course you could always buy a really nice french blue one and save yourself the wait

I'll even put your auto box in if you like

Even I would have a go at the welding and I've only just started using my MIG in anger.

Fancy finishing my Acclaim Derek?

Hi Neil, yep, auto's are a dying breed! Thankfully for you your Inca is in a LOT better shape than mine and just a respray will transform it..lucky you!

Wow! Well spotted!.. Yep, 1984 SD1 EFI Vanden plas Auto..only about 1100 were made, quite a rare beast now.

This is the very car..



It's not mine by the way, It's my mate Lee's..

[Reg]

Got some lovely repair pics, thought I would share them with you all..













Very pleased to see nice new metal!..

[Reg]

Derek has taken off the drivers outer sill to reveal this lot..







Nothing too alarming, that we all haven't seen before..

An order of outer sills and reinforcers is in progress at the mo.

More delightful pictures of solid metal soon..

[Matt Cotton]

Looks good Reg! good progress!

How has he cut off that sill so perfectly straight? Plasma cutter?

[Autonet7]

You forgot this one Reg. Sorry about the quality, bloody mobile again.

[Howard81]

Cor, that looks excellent!!! Such nice quality workmanship

What's the secret?
