For what it is worth,my google chrome translates Luli fromHebrew(not Arabic ) into English
The translation is a bit eccentric, but you can get the general sense!

See my reply. Please let me know if I can help…I have a friend in Osnabrück with a TR4A who’s been rebuilding an XK120 coupe and has become very familiar with the local TUV…….

Welcome to the club! My experience in Germany a couple of years ago in June/July with my 12 tourer (#110) was very good…apart from two flat tyres, which was really my fault (long story involving old inner tubes). I cruised happily at a genuine 60mph on the Autobahnen with a bit of speed in hand. Of ...

Thanks for the supportive comments! I cut the ply door panels today and stripped the old material from what was left of the originals (with the number 58 pencilled on them!) I don’t think much fabric will be saveable, it is a complex lay up to make the design of the door card an it is very fragile. ...

Latest update! It is amazing what skill (not mine) can achieve. Both doors now fit and shut perfectly. The driver's door frame needed a lot of work including re-making a complete corner frame, but it is done. Very satisfying.

Quick update
Flushed the fuel system with fresh fuel and, as it is taxed & insured now, I took it round the block. Starts,stops & steers. All good news. I'll take it for a run over the weekend

Now I have the car (and the keys - don't ask). It appears very original...no sign of previous restoration., just lots of use and (I hope) regular maintenance.. Many small differences to my other car (no 110). For example in the boot area there is a Rexine fabric cover (not quite sure what it covers,...

I won’t be reupholstering, but the carpets are probably finest sitting room,so do need replacing! The driver door card looks as it has kept a family of mice well fed, so will need attention,it looks like a green Rexine, I have seen Rexine remanufactured when I was doing an early Austin Seven,but the...
