Hi Jay, how's the coast treating you?
I purchased this EK from SCK, I knew the car had a lot of potential being so original and a little unlucky with the cars meeting with a Garbage Truck

EK looks good, can't wait to see it sign written!
Hi DR, The Panel Shop is Happy, though, not as Happy as me
It is just wonderful to have this sort of relationship where everyone is on the same page and expects the best. It is hard enough to find someone to spray in Acrylic!
Steve is also a whiz with Metal, you don't need to supply replacements. He makes them
I have them very booked up with oldies ....

The paint & body work came up a treat!
Looks fantastic.
Its good to know that there are some body shops out there that will do a good job on the old cars like ours ....
Could you post the shops address details. I wouldnt mind having a chat with them. Am planning a tidy up for my FB as well ...
Cheers,
Jamie.

I don't blame you!
Their work speaks for itself. I'd be happy if I was in your position too.

Goes to show that acrylic still has a place in the restoration process for as lot of us. Those guys have done a great job. How much did it cost to to repair and paint that one - it would be a good guide for a lot of forum members.
Did they repair the left hand guard or was that replaced? Given the amount of rust behind the guards and the sill area what was it like between the firewall and the sub-frame where they have the hidden rot, was much work needed there?
That car is looking a million bucks and the red on white is a pretty good look. You would have to be happy with that !!!
