Thread: Positive Progress on the Thames

Coyote, it's a shame you have another set back, but it's good to know that you have someone working on it now that knows his stuff. Just think about how nice it's going to be when finished. Here are a couple of pix just for you, I was thinking of you when I took these yesterday at the NSRA Nats here in Tampa. Notice the background on the 2nd pic.

sorry that you had to do all that extra work. but at least you know now that it is done right and will be beautiful when finished.

Thanks for the pictures Mike, that's a real beauty ......... especially with its steel hood and nose (complete with parking lights/turn signals ........ however, that Thames had been modified by the addition of the longer Anglia doors with roll up windows .......... to me they change the whole symmetry of the truck .......... look at the difference in the lengths of the doors on the two cars on the trailer in the second picture .......... the Prefect on the left uses the same front door as the Thames ........ the Anglia on the right has much longer front doors

Hopefully we will have ours on the road by the end of the month ....... again, thanks for taking the pictures, that was very nice

I had the bright idea to change out the doors on my Thames for the 10" wider sedan doors,, and after looking at a side view. with the stock doors, I realized how much the wider doors changed the whole look and style of the Thames,,
I am sticking with the stock doors,, might have a harder time getting my FAT azz in ,, but I can always go on a diet,, ,

besides the sedan doors are as hard to come up with as the rear doors for the Thames $$$$$$$$ not to mention the work to change them out

Look's great..Heres one we see here a lot..Sorry about the big pictures..

Looking great, Let me know if you need any bits and pieces for it, We have a fair few over here, A week ago i bought 2 new front wings for real sensible money.
