Round 5 of the 2020 Surgery Sprints

It was a very wet start to the day, one for the ducks. For those who did make it, there was plenty of track time as the weather started to ease off. The day was not without its drama, both on and off the track.

British Racing Green TR4

The very happy owner picked up his Triumph TR4 this morning. Surface rust left this beautiful car with some unsightly blisters. We did a full exterior strip back to bare metal, the body was in great condition, just badly prepped from its previous paint job. Once the surface rust was clean and conditioned we got it back to its former glory in stunning British Racing Green.

Old paint reborn again

Restoring your paint doesn’t always mean a repaint. Tired, scratched and faded paint can be brought back to life, just like the paint on this Holden Monaro GTS. #paintrestoration#detailing#holdenmonarogts#classiccars#classicrestoration#thesurgerynz
