    British Car Days 2011. Dayton Ohio

    This event is held at Eastwood Metro Prk in Dayton Ohio. It is onr of the largest gatherings of British vehicles.

    We are taking a 1965 Jaguar E-type convertible and a 1967 Sunbeam Tiger. Both received a full clean up and a polish with Menz. po85rd. The Sunbeam took best of class and the Jaguar an award of excellence.



















    This XK150 I was 100% involved with the restoration of including assembly, blocking, and the finish work on the paint. It was done 10 years ago and has a two page list of major awards. It took best of class in the premier class(all the winners of last year). It was refreshed a few years ago and will be comming back for a full detail soon.





    We tried to take as many pics in between talking with clients and friends.

    Thanks and Happy Birthday. I`m still amazed how many great cars are in and come to Ohio for these events. People come from all over the US for this one. Not all the vehicles were there for most of our pictures. There ended up being over 250.

    Thank you! We drove the Jag to and from the show. It drives great sounds better. This is a hard show it is all peoples choice and the majority are people who brought a vehicle. I think it is more critically judged because you already are inclined to like your vehicle better than the next guys.

    It was held Aug 6 last year. I haven`t received confirmation of this year. It`s put on by the Miami Valley Triumphs Club. They may announce something on their site.

    I had never driven one till this one. They are great. In the future I want an Alpine (same car just 4cyl) the plan is to put a aluminum block SVT in it with 4 piston brembo`s all around. The block should weigh in around the same but much more power for a cheaper price. That`s unless I can afford the 500 RWHP 72 Pantera I`ve posted.

    This reminds of when I used to work on some Austin Americans that the company had picked up for resale.
