Terrific. Well done. How about some more pictures under the bonnet and inside.

Those bumpers caught my attention. They need to be used!

hi terry, looks absolutley superb, not a ripple in sight, if you ever have to replace the front bumpers get them from angloparts they have the correct profile

I Forgot I can only do one at a time. This was taken before the bonnet and badges were put on. Don't ask about the bonnet or the time I dented the wing or the rear glass problems or the water pump leaks or the oil pipe leaks or the bl***y awkwardness the bottom rad hose etc. etc. etc. Don't you just luv em

Terry,
The car is beautiful. I have a coupe that will be black when finished. I didn't look at any of the pictures you had for Steve, so don't worry. I won't mention the grey instrument panel, or anything else.

Congratulations.

Hi Terry,
Lovely job.
It would look even better with one of these.

It just so happens that as far as I am concerned, a mineral blue twin cam coupe is the ultimate combination of power and beauty in an MGA. Amazing work.

Terry,
That is a lovely car. I have to say, I agree with Del, there is nothing like a Twin-Cam Coupe!

Cheers,

Beautiful, and what a fantastic resto. Hope my coupe is half as good as yours when I'm done.
Funny how light can fool the camera - the first photo looked like it is black, then it turns out to be blue!
Thanks for sharing, and just in time for the 50th anniversary of the TC.

That's a beautiful job, Terry. I've just dragged my wife over to the screen to see it (hoping to forestall any growing doubt about my progress on the roadster). I'm very impressed--and not a little envious. Bravo!

Terry- interior and bonnetless engine compartment look fantastic - (how come I can never see the first photo?)- well done -Cheers Cam

Oh good - another coupe with the wrong colour carpet like mine. My excuse is that when I restored it, you couldn't get the grey carpets and would have had to create them from scratch while black was available off the shelf.

They produce them in grey now, but I've always been too thrifty to rip out a perfectly good black set to replace it!

Lovely coupe!
Bill Spohn

What a gorgeous car.

Of course I am biased. My first "driveable" MGA was a Mineral Blue Coupe. My roadster resotoration took over 20 years. The joke was: would I complete the restoration and feel the air blowing thru my hair before there was no hair left. I think it was a tie!

There is no equal to the feeling of driving a car for the first time after taking 20 years of work to get there.
