More Tarka Photos

A couple of photos:

The first is inside the cockit, showing the inner sidescreen trimmed out by Austin at Williams: I discovered that this Plus 8 was one of the last 1 or 2 cars he trimmed before leaving Morgan to move to Williams! I still need to fit my Sat Nav.

The second is our "slimline" leather case: bought from Jays when he changed to Nero it coordinates perfectly with Tarka's colour!

The Third is the new LibrandsDoor Check for the Plus 8: unlike the standard ones it locates over the upper hinge and sits higher up the door, which I think is an improvement. In the kit are supplied new stainless steel set screws to replace all the nasty and probably rusting hinng screws, plus new screws to fill the holes left where the old leather strap once was located.

Nice. thumbs

The trimming of the interior of the sidescreens really does finish off the interior better. I might have to consider having that done.

The colour of the case is perfect for Tarka; I have exactly the same one, only in black. If you were to ever check it on as baggage on a plane the case itself would take up most of your weight allowance, but luckily, that's not what I bought it for !!

I also love the trimming Peter, well done. But you still need some things to be improved.....

Your case and strap look very good, now your ready for that continental grand tour.

Maybe take in the Ring on the way to the Alpine mountain passes and then head for the Lakes in Italy?
