Greenie Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 At last the Hurricane resto project is making some progress. I'm still working on the running gear and have had a few setbacks because of poor quality parts.I'll put a few updates and pictures on from time to time.It looks a lot better than it actually was in the 'before' pictures...

Greenie Posted January 7, 2012 Author Share Posted January 7, 2012 The colour is as close as I could get to Lichfield green... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rotoflex Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 That green is a good color for the car.It's interesting how it resembles the Aston Martin DB3S from the front & in general proportions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane 1600 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Looking good keep at it and pm me if I can help with anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenie Posted January 18, 2012 Author Share Posted January 18, 2012 I was really in two minds about that colour but the more I see it, the better it gets. It's still a bit pea green but as I add brightwork etc it looks better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaydub Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Glad to see you're getting somewhere with it - looks like a nice paint job, something mine desperately needs... I see you are over Bristol, I'm only North Wilts so if you need another for comparison etc.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenie Posted January 22, 2012 Author Share Posted January 22, 2012 Hi Jaydub,That would be very useful thanks, there's a quite few things I'm not too sure about at this stage. I'm near Yate, about 15 mins from J18.CheersSimon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaydub Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Hi ya, Sorry for the late reply been working on my winter project (a logburner in the lounge). I've P.M.ed you my details so I'll hopefully be able to pop over at some point - not used the Hurricane for a few months since I bought a Subaru pick up for winter use, I could do with sticking a battery on it and giving it a run.See you've got an old Austin as well, I've got a '36 16/6 with 4.2 Jaguar running gear - we'll have to compare!
