October 2011

We have been working away at a great rate. We have added an extra staff member! We have nicknamed him Hoppy as he is currently hopping from one car to another and doing a fine job. His first job was a spark plug lead rewire on a Phantom III - both inner and outer leads. For those who don't know that is over 88 feet of ignition high tension lead and three solid days work! In addition, we have completed and installed a V12 Phantom III engine after rebuild. It runs very well and the customer very pleased.    ..........................
