Bodyshop recommendations

quattromnc · 14-10-17, 06:39 PM

I want to get the bodywork on my B3 coupe sorted, theres a good list of issues in need of attention, a little rust, panel damage and full respray, so a decent size job all in. I'm looking for recommendations for someone that could sort it for me, preferrably someone that knows these cars. I'm based in Glasgow but am happy to travel for the right people.

Please only recommend if you've had extensive bodywork done by them. Not really looking for someone recommending a mate (unless the mate's done work on your car of course).

Looking to get this done spring '18 but want to start now with a quote and to prep a list of required parts for the job.

Thanks in advance.
Sion

Hi there I can recommend 2 bodysuits the first one is J.B.COACHWORKS.its in George Street in Paisley. The chap is called Jim Biggam. Works on a lot of high end cars. He is a car artist. His own car is a rs6 estate in a funny coloured green. Looks nice.you may get a cheaper quote elsewhere but you get what you pay for...his contact number is.0141 842 1465... Also you can try A.C. TAYLOR. A chap called big Alan owns this place in drakemire drive. Linnpark near castlemilk. I had my old BMW e30 in there to get the front done after a bump.again his work is very very good. Again he is a car guy and has normally booked solid..0141 634 8910 or 0141 634 6789. I hope these help as there work is good and there both into cars which helps. Good luck.

If you could recommend any bodysuits anyway, I'm feeling kind of kinky these days.

Ha, ha ha aye a do have an old thing in my basement ( including) the wife. It's very much rubber and has a air raid mask attached to it. Think it's about 40 odd year old and a bit crotch worn. Bit like myself.

How long have you kept the wife in the basement

The whole post was very funny indeed

Sorry I'm looking for preferably new, not used. Damn wish I had a basement now, I could hide my suit down there too!

It was Williamson & Noble in Thornliebank who did the windscreen roof for me if you want to know who to avoid

Oh I let the wife out now and again. When it's raining so she can get a wee wash. That's the good thing about having no neighbours. Means you can go about your business in peace.. Oh and have any of you gents have a spare bolero.looking for a 17 inch , 5x112, and 8j. The set I have are from a 1996 s6, so looking for that type. can collect if local. And it doesn't matter if it has a tyre or not. Regards Paul.
