To clarify, Poms (English) make that joke about Aussies, Aussies make it about Kiwi’s
Who knows. Tata owned them at that point. If I were to guess, I’d say electronics were probably pretty sketch.
Couldn’t see the video “not available in your country”.
I’ll take a look at the XKSS article though. A school friend’s Dad had a C Type and then a D Type and evidently well known in the local Jag u ar and Triumph owners circle. I never got to see them but the school mate gave me a short ride in his TR3A. I assume the Trumpy was his apprenticeship before joining the Jag ranks.
The said father quit his corporate life in wine and started a classic car restoration business. It got a write up in the Aussie magazine “Sports Car World” back in the late 70s.
This was one of his cars

It's probably a little ways off, but we're going to put this together. Of course there's a Thunderbird.
Remasking prior to clearcoat.
Verreh happeh with how the edges came out.
Going to be interesting to see how the cut phenolic edges look under the clear. Tests looked pretty cool. Resisted the urge to black them out with dye.
Counting on the clear to resolve some thin scratches on the face, too... polishing it out would lose the weave texture.
TBCH I'm kind of counting on the clear to fix a lot of stuff, lol. Kind of like the old saying:
Chefs cover mistakes with sauce,
Lawyers with words,
Doctors with dirt.
Hack builders, with clearcoar.
