Restomod MK2 Jaguar COUPE on the Deck!

Episode 139

This week we see "Churchill" on the deck and rolling for the first time since we started the project, as well as the latest progress on all the builds at RP HQ!

Churchill just looks amazing on its wheels, what a car, Stu's a true craftsman and a magician.

[TheLRider]

That Stratos sounds amazing 😁😁😁can't wait for the road test. Would be happy if you devoted a whole episode 😮😮to it.

Churchill looks awesome on those wheels..

[danielfyffe]

It's so marvelous to hear you guys referring to "Gordon's car", i.e. you finest work as the benchmark by which you assess standards of progress/ quality of workmanship. Hell yeah, that's how the outstanding/ next level stuff gets done!!!

[Stu_]

I may be alone but i love Churchill on those XJR wheels!

[GuyChapman]

Churchill is an absolute masterpiece. A real testament to Stu's skill, ingenuity, diligence and experience. The Escorts are great to see, but projects like Churchill, CV8 and so on, are what set you guys apart. You can't imagine anyone else doing this.

[fritzbrause]

I look at the arch extensions of the Escorts with a lot of respect for the incredible amount of work and craftsmanship going in there. For me it would be a nightmare to own this car. Just the idea to ding these works of art plus the gentleman who created them probably wanting to kill me for dinging the arches would render the car undriveable to me

[keithfarrell]

Tom and Stuart are true craftsmen. Amazing stuff

[philtucker]

I love the concept of having( what looks like a compact screen wash bottle) in the engine compartment that actually flows into the comparatively enormous screen wash reservoir that doubles as the navigator’s footrest.

[hespie]

Having watched Stu for a few years, his work ethic and skills are very admirable. As is the whole crew.

[davidyates]

You guys are incredibly fortunate to be able to choose what work you take on, that on its own is something to make me envious! No-one could argue you haven't earned this privileged position though, your work speaks for itself.

Thanks for talking about the Range Rover Classic briefly.
As you walked past it I was picking my phone up to comment asking you to tell us more about the RR.
Please do a little feature on it, I realise it's a staff car, but it is still a very interesting project.
Thank you for all the amazing work you show us all. 🙌

[johannwilhelm]

Glad to see your tasteful design execution on Churchill. Exactly what my old XJ-6C wished to be!Thank you for fitting proper rear wheel arches…welcome change over Utah’s horrid spats. IMHO, my ‘52 XK-120 was the last of appropriate spats.
In the event I’m fortunate enough to find myself across the pond, I’ll put a visit to your splendid shop at the top of my wish list.

[gregedwards]

I spent most of my 80’s childhood being transported around in various beige and baby blue allegros with much embarrassment at my parents choice of vehicle I now find myself weirdly drawn to both this allegRo project and Johnny smith’s project. Massive respect for the skills and attention to detail of your whole team, keep up the great work.

[tonedcos]

Looking forward to Churchills final reveal. Among the rest, the Camaro man. Phew. ;)

[Danger_mouse]

9:35 Surely it's now an Integro 😊👍

Churchill is looking amazing, it's the first Jag I'm actually attracted to. Amazing looking car and craftsmanship!

[cccap]

wow!! spectacular craftsmanship!! that is the MKII jaguar should have build. Following in anticipation.

[PeterHatch-mxzc]

Yes the mk2 is going to unbelievable when finished

[cuplove]

Churchill looks AMAZING now I’m dreaming of a hint of a zagato bubble roof, but this car looks sooo amazingly strong, a bit chunky muscular still elegant a dream car !!

32:01 first step would be a frameless door window like on a 993 targa… there still is a b-pillar

[oldieman]

Having watched for a few years now, I am always in awe of the the absolute Master of the Craft called Stu.
