Body shop in Hertfordshire please???
Discussion
OK, I admit it I scatched my car... I do have a small garage though.
This was the final thing to make me want at least a front end respray along with getting the mirrors done at the same time.
I've been reading previous threads but found no recommendations for a Herts based spray shop.
I'm also a little concerned as to the colour match as I read one post that said they had seen a Griff that had and obviouse nose job! Don't want that!
Also...... Front vs full respray... Whats the rough difference??
Can any spray shop fit Armourfend (think thats its name??) to avoid stone chips? I know you can see it close-up but better than stone chips me thinks.
Any experience/advice out there would be appreciated.

You could try Trevor Welgan at Welgan Coachworks in Harpenden (01582 461078). He's got a Tuscan himself and had a couple of Chimeara's. Not used him on my TVRs (when I had one) but have used him for other work and am very happy to recommend him.
Paul
Cool.... Do you have a telephone number for him?
At least he will know what TVR owners are like with their cars.
Guessing that he's probably done work on his own cars in the past?
www.tvr-prwood.co.uk/ are in Essex if thast any good and www.ewelmecoachworks.com/about_us.html are in Oxfordshire.
There the two nearest ones that I know off for sure even though there must be others

My cars currently being resprayed at a (recommended by a friend) bodyshop in Stevenage. Should be ready early next week so i'll update you on how it looks.
If your in the Stevenage area let me know if you want to see the work.
I'm in Stevenage. Who you using??
Very curious.
You in Stevenage?
Hi, i'm in the Great Ashby area, Im using a bodyshop in the old town area of Stevenage, car will be ready Wednesday or Thursday of this week.
Just waiting for a few new parts to finish it off, but i'll put them on later. Cant seem to get a new grill anywhere plus TVR badges are out of stock at the factory so guess i'll be going down the Leven route....

I go to the meet in Harpenden 2nd Sun of the month, but have not been for a while. I will be there on the 13th all being well.
Other than that, if anyone fancies a local meet then we need to find a pub with a decent car park with no big speed bumps. Any ideas ?
Pete
MMMMmmmmm..... Not sure. Plenty of decent local pubs. What sort of response do you think we could get?
I've never been to the meet over at Harpenden. My x works weekends so we never got the chance to go and now I'm a lonely shortlad and have noone to go with

Lee (montegogt) for the last couple of months has arranged a meet over near Shefford, Here is the last thread, I expect Lee will sort another one for this month.
Hopefully I can make it
