  • Body Shop Recommendations

    I am looking at restoring my car this next year and I am looking for body shop recommendations. I am based in the north west but I am happy to travel for the right body shop.

    I'm looking for somewhere that has an interest in what they are doing rather then just getting it in and out the shop as quickly as possible.

    I was planning on taking the shell back to bare metal, I would be looking at getting the rear arches replaced and I have a couple of new wings to go on as well.

    Any recommendations and experiences from that body shop will be much appreciated

    Cheers Simon

                  I’ll hopefully be in the same position next year, I know every cars different but what sort of price are people paying for a full respray.

                        A good painter is always going to be busy, stay away from the quiets ones I guess.

                              When you come to do yours be prepared to have a slightly open ended price as there will be hidden nasties lurking.
