Considering Thorpy for my chassis refurb any recommendations or warnings either way???

Best place to go, great chassis work.

I'd second that. I've known Richard for over 25 years. Very good honest bloke. No bullst.
Richard and his guys handled my rebuild and would highly recommend them to anyone.

fantastic work on your wedge chassis there. Full chassis refurb is the way to bit the bullet, and dig deep in your bank account. Its the least these fantastic cars deserve.

My personal experience was that I couldn't fault the workmanship one bit. But their/Richard's admin leaves a bit to be desired. Things didn't happen to the timescales promised, and I ended up being supplied with someone else's parts, which then took a few weeks to resolve, I also had some issues with the bolt kits I bought.

ok thanks all for the feedback - have had the car serviced there in the past and always been ok...
will be pushing the GO button soon

Picked mine up from RT on Tuesday after a full chassis refurb. No hesitation in recommending them. Quality of work can't be faulted, Richard kept me up to date pretty much weekly, and let me know of any problems they uncovered, such as swirl tank and fuel pump needing replacement, but also advising on jobs that would be worth doing whilst the body is off, such as heat shields and engine mounts.

There may be cheaper options available, but I believe in buying on value rather than cost. Properly thorough job was done on mine.

I was satisfied with the refurb they did on my Tuscan. The photographically documented progress updates they provided me with were confidence inspiring and they arranged for the application of a non-standard anti-corrosion treatment for me, too.
