Watched it last night.
+4 Reg J40 MOG (if memory serves me right)
Bought from Richard Thorne Morgans for £13,000 as seen needing a new chassis and for restoration only.
Estimated to take 100 man hours to replace the old chassis for a new chassis from the factory.
Allegedly after 10 hours the cowl & grill, bonnet, radiator, both front wings and I think the inner wings had been removed by two men.
I think I must have been doing something wrong when I stripped my 4/4 down to the chassis cos it took a lot longer than that.
When they removed the trim from the sill boards they appeared to be stained very black but no mention of the condition of the wood work.
The same with the bottom of the bulkhead it showed signs of rot but this wasnt mentioned.
However the bulkhead bottom appeared to have had repair sections welded in place on reassembly.
I found it incredible that they took delievery of a new galvanised chassis and then proceeded to drill hundreds of holes in it.
I prefer to dry build the car and strip it down again and have the chassis treated then.
