Hi everyone,
I did post a note in the introduce yourself section when i joined but my my name is Paul and i live in Brighton on the south coast.I know this probably a bit cheeky but i would find it very useful if i could see any plus 2s in the sussex/surrey area restored or being restored as i am starting a restoration of a 72 plus 2.The car was originally lagoon blue/silver but i do love red as i had a red plus2 many years ago.If anyone is willing to let me have a look at their car i would really appreciate it,i promise to bring along choccy biscuits,
many thanks,
Paul 07595894897

You're very welcome Paul, 'twas a pleasure - if you need free labour you know where I am and good luck with your project - I found pictures of the car you bought, will be a great adventure!!

Hi Paul,

My car (for the last 2 weeks) is not being restored either, nor is it red! but if you fancy a look at it you are welcome to come up to London. It's going to a electric mechanic to sort out a battery recharging issue.

Get in touch if you fancy the drive to London.

Best of luck with your restoration.

Instead of starting a new thread i thought I would jump in on this one as i am also in Sussex...

I have got to the stage where I have to start assembling my +2 (body is being sprayed so will be back on it's rebuilt chassis in the next 2-3 weeks) but having started with basket case with no interior, being able to see a completed interior and ask some questions would be really helpful for me

So if anyone is willing to let me pick their brains and see their +2 it would be much appreciated!

Thanks

Alex

Hi Alex

You can have a look at my car if that will be useful to you - build date is early 1973.
Let me know if you would like to pop over and we can get a date/time arranged.

Not sure if you got my pm as it doesn't show in my sent list.
I will be driving around Sussex this afternoon so depending on where you are and if free I could pay a visit.
Give me a call on 0788 0741 981.

All

Just following this series of posts. I am near Horsham and my car is being re-commissioned at a workshop in Wivelsfield Green. It isn't a concours car by any stretch of the imagination but happy if anyone wants to take a look at it.

Do any of you have access to parts? I am missing the drivers side under dash trim and the external chrome strips that sit at the base of the driver's and passenger's windows. Paul Matty can supply uncovered fibreglass pieces for the under dash trim but I cannot source the chrome trim anywhere. Any help very welcome

John
