Title: ME155
Post by: rarecarfan on August 31, 2017, 22:36:02

Hi all, have just acquired 155. Poor old girl has not seen the road since the late 80s, when she was stripped ready for a repaint that never happened. I would be interested to hear from any owners in the North Devon area (where I live), the closest to date seems to be near Bath, or for that matter any owners in the South West.
   Fortunately I have some experience of classic cars having restored a few over the years and currently have a 1976 Jensen GT, 1968 MGC GTS and a 1990 TVR Tasmin 3.9 FHC. However this will be my first "fling" with an AC so I expect I will be picking the combined brains of this forum when I start on the "project" in a couple of months time. In the meantime hello and please bear with me as an AC "NEWBIE". Cheers Tim

Good luck with the project - there's a lot of 3000ME experience in the club and several members have completed a chassis-up rebuild - including me!

Fantastic news as I have no doubt that I will need a lot of that expertise, at the moment I am trying to work out which owners are closest to me in South Molton (between Tiverton (Junc 27 M5) and Barnstaple. To date the nearest seems to be Geoff Wilkinson near Bristol.
