This week, we custom fit the door skins to accommodate the door handles and laminated the original hood skin onto the kit’s hood that was cut from the front clip. The new fuel door was fitted to the quarter panel as well. We’ve also received the front grill and the white side marker lights.

In addition to mounting the Lambo doors, we’ve cut the skin off the hood, and cut the new hood out of the front section of the front clip. Our next step is to mount the new hood on to the donor car hood structure. After that, we will cut the quarter panels and rear sections from the donor car.

We received the crate with all the body components today. Will from Estes Express Lines was very helpful and patient while Jerry arranged for Dave from Rishe’s Auto to come over with his flat bed tow truck. Dave was very helpful and the job couldn’t have gone more smoothly.
Miscellaneous parts are trickling in and as soon as we get the donor car, we’ll be going at it full time. Stay tuned for more updates!

S & H Motors is on the verge of beginning an exciting new project. We have a new client who is having us build an Ash Mart kit car. It is a replica of the Aston Martin Vanquish.
We should be receiving the kit in the next seven to ten days, with the donor car following in a few weeks. The donor car will be a late model Jaguar XK, XKR or XK8.
Here is a photo of the kit car from the carkitinc.com web site. This does not necessarily represent the final result, but gives you a general idea of the kit car itself. We will be posting progress pictures as we go along. Feel free to leave comments!

S & H Motors will soon be building our next project. We’ve acquired a Factory Five Cobra 5.0 HO and are currently prepping the donor car. We will be posting a (mostly daily) diary of this build so stop back often!
