It was going to happen one day.

Sorry to hear that Martin, I just had mine done on the Chim, £850 for both from Kevin who does the outrigger work at Bespoke. I did the part lift and painting. At bespoke they remove carpets and cut holes where the cuts/welds are to be made, then patch pack in the pieces they took out. This seems a pretty good idea, as the holes will always line up. But I wanted the body off to paint.
Slightly different on a CerbEra Dave, much bigger job.
The car is being stripped at STR8SIX. The cassis will be compleatly stripped down and shot blasted. The cassis will be going to Willow Sports Cars for the metal work to be sorted, new out riggers, top rails and tubes that are near the exhaust. Some additional work to make the chassis more ridged will also be done.
Chassis then goes to be zinc primed and then a epoxy coating goes over that.
Only thing left to decide is what colour to do the chassis?
You see any one that knows my car knows it wants for nothing, except paint;-). She has her battle scars and wears them with pride but underneath that plastic skin she is faultless.
So do I go for something fancy or just white or grey?

Nice, of course str8six have a fantastic rep and also I've read some excellent reviews of Willows work.The car is being stripped at STR8SIX.

As for the colour , has to be white ( for me ), I've thought about doing other colours but I've seen a couple done in blue or red which look great when done but look dull after a while and not sharp. White will always look crisp when clean?
Best of luck with it.
