Hendrik-Jan Thomassen: Sills, wheel arches and doors

thomassen restoration   

This is the story of the restoration of the sills, the outer wheel arches, and the bottom parts of the doors of my DS420. It was done bij Bart Romijnders, a Dutch specialist in the restoration of Jaguar and Daimler bodies. And, most important, he is a genius in welding techniques.

A very important part of the fun was that his shop was open all Saturday (and many evenings) and he welcomed all owners who want to get their hands dirty. I can assure you that there is no better way to get an insight (literally) into your own car!

This album has more than 160 pictures.
