Default Restoration story of my Spitfire convertable....
I have two spitfires convertable.one is in original condition and other I restored in the front lawn of my house.I hired a fabricator from faisalabad provided him and his son with residence and food gave him my front lawn.bought oxygen cylender and other acetiline cylender,bought 18 guage steel sheets(made complete workshop)bought a new digital camera.gave him the spit in all original condition asked him to make all the "FARMAS"of the complete car includind all floors all panels and every thing.and replace the rusted ones of the other spitfire.......it took 5 months of work around 135000rs and a loooooooooooot of headache to complete this car.some of the initial pics are here...
