Fabric bodied Teignmouth is restored

The "before" and "after" pictures

How bad can it get?

Difficult to believe it is the same car !

This is what I call a hero's job !

Steve Birt has restored this fabric-bodied Teignmouth over the last 2 to 3 years and its first outing was to the International Rally at Denny Abbey. Steve has been thoughtful enough to document the restoration and take 200 photos along the way!

Hence, I am creating this Minisite, just to record this mamouth undertaking, so that his hard work will be recorded for you to marvel at. I hope it encourage others to take on that restoration that has been lurking in their garage. 

Please note that Steve has no special skills, nor has he restored anything else previously. All the skills he needed were learnt along the way, with help from members and the club for advice and spares.

These two photos and this page is a taster for what is to come.

  • Restoration Part 1 - to be published in August

  • Restoration Part 2 - to be published in August

  • Restoration Part 3 - to be published in September

Come back soon to see how it was done!


I am aware that there are other cars and information that could be added to this site to make it more comprehensive, so if you have material and photographs, please let me know.  Please send me, Phil Homer, a message at: Phil Homer
