I need a garage or mechanic to remove a pair of carbs and fit replacements and a manual choke cable.

Its Jag XJ6.

Any recommendations in Southampton? An old boy that knows what a carb is would be handy.

A little way outside of Southampton down in Hythe : http://www.ajcclassics.com/

They replaced a brake hardline on my old Alfa, seemed decent enough.
Just called them, closing down this week.

Anybody used http://www.classicrestore.co.uk/index.html ?

Steve knows the difference between a Stomberg and a Strongbow!!!!
I forgot about Southways.

Called the people in Eastleigh, its a commercial vehicle body place, not a car restorer. Bit odd.

I use William Street Motors down by St Marys Stadium. They have quite a few classics in there and do a lot of sportscars. They did all the work on my TVRs.

Worth dropping them a line....
That might work, 200 yards from my office.

Thanks.
