New Member - XK140 FHC Owner
#1
![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Hi all
My name is Nick - resident in West Sussex in the UK.
I bought an incomplete XK140 FHC project a few years ago - the bodywork had been largely completed, but I am now finding some aspects that need rework! To date I have rebuilt the engine and completed a number of small sub projects. The plan is to finish the bodywork by the Spring/Summer, after which I will work on rebuilding the chassis.
I have recently retired, so am now able to spend more time on the car. I am finding that this project is taking much more time than my last rebuild - a 1973 Triumph GT6 mk3!
I am looking forward to being a member of the forum. I am ultimately be interested in making contact with a fellow XK140 FHC owner in the south east of England, particularly with someone who has undertaken a rebuild themselves.
