This Alvis TD Series II going under a total restoration. The picture shows the engine bay stripped out ready for rebuilding, also the right hand wing has had the paint removed back to bare metal as part of our thorough preparation prior to re-spray. |

This shows corrosion which came to light when the lower wing was removed. The corrosion is between the chassis and the inner wing. To rectify this we will cut out all the corroded metal and fabricate new pieces. |

These are some of the parts removed during restoration which will be refurbished with new components prior to refitting on the car. These parts are from an Alvis TD 21 Series II and include carburetors and a starter motor. |
