Damo has been busy this past week dealing with the front strength braces on the 1974 MGB GT... Soon to be V8. To our not so pleasant surprise this brave had been repaired at least three times before us, however all they had done was stick it over the old panel resulting in Damo having to peel it like an onion 😱. And do a proper repair! @hunters_fabweld #mgbgt #classiccars #classicv8 #classiccar #carproject #mgb #mgbv8 #welding #fabrication #metalwork https://www.instagram.com/p/CYyW5LSIAis/?utm_medium=tumblr

Got a new fiberglass bonnet 😎 complete with lovers to keep the temp down and bulge to pack in more stuff! POWER! Came ready made from our good friend Clive at MG V8 Parts. #bonnet #louvers #v8 #v8parts #fiberglass #mgb #mg #rv8 #classiccar #carproject https://www.instagram.com/p/CYgi5dQIjzD/?utm_medium=tumblr

The pick of the spoils and plenty more to choose from! Spent a day again with good friend @coastal_foraging_with_craig exploring the delightful Welsh coastline for some amazing seafood.

Treated Lily to a hot pot alfresco dining experience. Wasn't the best day for it with the tail end of a storm rearing it's ugly head throughout the day. Even so, we had a fantastic day filling out bellies, in good company and getting back outside. @thebushcraftshow @bushcraftmagazine #hotpot #food #woods #forest #outside #outdoors #cooking #chinese #火锅 #你还 #漂亮 #getoutside #beautiful #beautifulgirl (at The Woods！) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPknJ5eBB9E/?utm_medium=tumblr

Brilliant Job done on the castle rails, came out very clean welding. The whole process was filmed for a new series and will be its own episode coming to YouTube/ @expedition_jack soon. #rust #holes #holeyshit #restorationproject #restoration #classiccars #classic #vintage #carproject #projectcars #cars #mgb #mgbgt #mg #british #mgbgtv8 #v8 #conversion https://www.instagram.com/p/CNHu3VLl97h/?igshid=1btharktpywb7

Original P38 oil sump cleans up well. This sump came on the bottom of our rover 4.6l V8 engine in a less desirable state. This is the most ideal sump design for an MGB V8 conversation due to the shape allowing to live together in harmony with the front crossmember without any modifications. Sweet! @expedition_jack YouTube/ExpeditionJack #oil #machanic #Cars #sportscars #v8conversions #v8conversion #classicconversion #mgb #mgbgt #mgbgtv8 #mgbv8 #v8 #v8engine #roverv8 #classiccars #classicrestoration #mgbrestoration https://www.instagram.com/p/CMErMEJFJSN/?igshid=5ssv0r03yb3v

Back in the workshop. Now we can see the true extent of the operation. She's had allot of work done prior, some not all good. She's now in Damo's domain, our expert welder, and he'll take good care of her. @expedition_jack YouTube/ExpeditionJack #car #classiccars #classicsportscar #classic #retro #restoration #vintagecars #sportscars #mgb #mgbgt #mgbgtv8 #conversion #mgbrestoration #fortheloveofcars #british https://www.instagram.com/p/CL80NabFwyI/?igshid=ud8rao8qgpma

The devil has been stripped back to 💀 skeletal form using acid to take off all paint and contaminants built up over the years. Some of the findings are shocking 🥺 @expedition_jack YouTube/ExpeditionJack #prostrip #acid #car #sportscar #rally #worldrallychampionship #rallybuild #carbuild #carproject #naked #strip #paintstrip #classiccar #classic #vintage #restoration (at Nottinghamshire, Robin Hood County) https://www.instagram.com/p/CL3nyRsFx7y/?igshid=xgxy7ip3mz7i
