As title really.

Can anyopne recommend a good bodyshop they have had experience with in Surrey (preferably near Guildford)?

 

Ive finally saved up some cash to get my car done, and need someone who will take a rolling shell and do a full restoration on the body shell.

Not sure if this is too far for you, but Stuart from Restore a Ford is meant to be top quality

I wouldn't bother with Ploughlane Coachworks in Sutton, they are only interested in insurance work.use someone who do restorations

I'm sure Steve Taylor, in Essex, wouldn't mind picking a car up from Surrey, especially a '72 GT. I can definitely vouch for the quality of his work.

I second that too, he's done a lot of mine and I'm going to take it back to him for the rest of the new rusty areas! :thumbup:

Cheers for all the recommendations, guys.

I need to get these into a shortlist and start calling round for some quotes etc.

 

I think my main problem is gonna be getting the car to the garage, or the garage to the car for a quote.

 

Thanks
