Hi, anyone know of any decent body shop in the North Tyneside area?

I've a spoiler needs painting and fitting to my MGF Plus a couple of paint areas sorted.

Cheers

For cheap and cheerful look for Alspray, a one man band just up from the quayside, knows is stuff, an enthusiast, and good prices.

For a fully fledged pro job, look for Heaton Coachworks, one of the best pro's in the area.

(I've no connection with either, so hopefully not breaking any rules)

Cheers for that. I'll check them out.

There's a body shop behind Armold Clarie at Shiremoor. Anyone got experience of them?

Garry Charlton at Chipsaway near Silverlink is worth a shout. He doesn't do mobile work these days, just works out of a bodyshop.

I think I know him. Name rings a bell. I'll try him as I could do with a SMART repair on a pea sized dent I put into the car, with my other car!

Thanks for that.

Garry is a good bet, don't try and pay him in BBQ chicken wings though - you won't have enough!

Gordon at GF Bodywork in Sandyford is recommended for a bigger job.

Sounds like Gary and I have some chicken based things in common.

I'll give him a call.

Thanks, Dan

Spoiler left with Gary. I'll be paying him cash and not in fried poultry!

Bob and Erica Dingwall from Whitley Bay are also well spoken of. They must trade on word of mouth alone as I hear them mentioned all the time for bodywork among friends, but I don't know the name of their garage!

And what a superb job Gary made of the spoiler.
