Front End Repairs to a 4/4

The 2012 MSCC Club sprint event at Curborough saw the ShropMog 4/4 in the hedge! This unplanned restyling necessitated some repairs to be undertaken. Here's the story.

Damage to bodywork and a punctured radiator.


Thanks to Lord Unstone for the loan of his trailer and to John Porter for towing it, we managed to get the 4/4 back home.

Repair work commences with dismantling and removing all the damaged pieces. With front-end damage, it was decided that this opportunity would be taken to fit an under-tray and do away with the very second-hand bumper and spotlights.

Stripped for inspection. Ready for transport to Tudor Motors in Market Drayton.

Thanks again to John Porter, this time for supplying a second-hand wing. The team at Tudors did a great job straightening the cowl.

New undertray ready for painting

Original fan on a new radiator. The bottom hose connector has been adjusted for extra clearance over the steering arm.

Looking good.


A super job was done on this car by Kevin Vernon and the team at Tudor Motor Body Repairs in Market Drayton. See our Links page for their contact details.
