Update: 14 February 2010
The Rover Tomcat Turbo’s been going through something of a strip down over the past couple of months. We’d already become resigned to doing a little bit of bodywork, but once it became clear that the job was going to involve a little bit more than replacing a few panels and getting busy with the Isopon P38, we needed time to think, ponder and decide what to do.
But that’s already been decided – and we’re pushing forward with Project Tomcat Turbo. A full service of the engine (the oil seals will follow) and brakes means its in rude health in that department, but we’re going to have to start delving just a little further to work out what we’re going to have to do to that body. The parts list is building up nicely.
A full update to follow.
