Long time no see. I've been building this for a few years. It still needs a lot of fettling, but it's better than it was. And it's now wearing a Savile Row suit. Before  During  Now, with air.  100% silk headliner from Savile Row tailor, Patrick Grant.  Engraved door handles from R. Ward gunmakers.  If you're into it, there are a load more pics on my work site. Click me for more. There's some cool stuff on there. Thanks to Bryn for the pics. |

That AMG is epic, but it lacks the style and taste that only English craftsmen can give.
And you've just proved that!
A truly great car.....improved.

Hey Matt, welcome back! Nice work, what window trim do you need? I can see what I have in the stash from the one I scrapped.
Edit: that headliner is the nuts.
