I worked on a few Turners when I was a British car wrench 20+ years ago. Fun little things.

Let me guess: No pictures left of that pre-historic period? Should have been awesome, I really start to like the British little things. Almost bought me a Lenham GT last summer.

And it probably was the only truly happy period in your life ;-)

Looks like an amazing place to work!

It was great when I was in my late teens and early 20s. The best “car” job I’ve ever had was working for Bill Arnold BMW Repair in CA - in addition to maintenance and repairs, we built race cars. It was a small outfit - and a small family - and I still consider Bill a brother. Google Frankenbav.

Frankenbav is AWESOME! Bring my regards to Bill! Not sure if you’ve ever seen other posts of my projects but I’m a bit into BMW myself. Current project:

Cool! I don’t see Bill nearly often enough, but I do talk to him occasionally.

Loves me some... looks like Colorado, a little light to be Inka.

Too bad, you just failed. As it is Inka ;-) Could be the lighting of course, iPhone camera.

And did you notice it’s a Touring as well?
