Trim and Paint Recommendation

[s6otty]

Good Afternoon all,

I've been working on my 400 HC for about 3 Years on and off, full rebuild, galv chassis, engine build, etc.

MOT'd it last year, just leaving the finishing to do, which is unfortunately, outside of my skill set!

Can anyone recommend anywhere I can have the paint, trim and roof all done together, ideally looking for a
drive in/drive out scenario.

Distance not really an object, but I'm based in the Midlands.

Cheers

Drive in Drive out solution has to be Surface and Design and D&C Trim both in the old TVR factory in Bristol Avenue.

Trim Unique also works closely with S&D and they're based a few miles away, Lee used to trim the TVR show cars and recently trimmed the TVR Tina seen at the Restoration show at the NEC.

Was your chassis, hot dip galvanised? If so how did you get on? Did you have to drill lots of holes in it first and did it twist at all? Who did it and what did you paint / put over the top of it? Any pics? Cheers

Thanks for the replies.

Yes, Hot Dipped, you do have to drill holes, to vent it, it was also braced to help prevent any distortion, measured up before and after, and was spot on to its original dimensions.

I haven't painted it, I thought about it, but thought over time it would get damaged, whereas now what you see, is pretty much what it will always look like!
