[Mike5537]

I've finally got my dream job, from now on ill be restoring classic cars and building bespoke wheels for them too, here are some pics of the toys currently being worked on, some are customers cars, some are the owners play things...

Ferrari 250 gto


E-type jag


Lancia Delta Integrale


A vintage Morgan


An example of the wire wheels, this is a patented split rim for the gto!


You can pick your jaws off the floor now! Can't believe someone is going to pay me to do this!

Oh and I almost forgot this little gem, if you wern't jealous yet look at this...

inside these boxes is a WW2 messerschmidt me109 that was shot down over russia! I may or may not get to work on it depending on funding, but still gives me goosebumps. Ill try and get some better photos of it.

Fantastic! Restoring something back to full glory from near the scrapheap must rank amongst one of the top jobs

Great stuff!! Love the Intergrale for reasons I don't quite understand. Not the prettiest of cars but I love all the 80's rally stuff. Enjoy it Mike!

One of the best internet forum posts I've ever seen.
It's a fantastic thing to work with what you love.
Well done.
