recommended welders for sills in ayrshire/glasgow

[elliotweir]

hello everyone

hope someone could help me out, my mk2.5 phoenix has rather rusty sills, a nice sized hole in the drivers side & the passenger side is slowly getting there



with the MOT in mid june, im looking at getting the sills cut out, treated behind & new metal welded in.



painting, im not too fussed about, as im thinking about just doing a line of black hammerite along the bottom of the sill (rear wheel to the front)



SO is there any garages/welders recommended to do my sills in the ayrshire / glasgow area? preferably done a mx5 before, a few cowboys i know have offered to the job "the car MIGHT catch fire" NO BLOODY WAY! )



i can get two repair panels for £160, is it worth buying them to provide for the job or leave who ever is doing the job to make their own panels / to their own devices?



any help would be much appreciated, cheers!

I'll be following with interest, I'm in Glasgow & have a mk.1 that needs sills doing.

I asked a while back on the Scotland forum and was recommended Mclarens in Kirkintilloch, and a place in Lanarkshire another PHer had used, Classic Coachworks I think it was called, but havent got round to getting quotes yet!

Also following, I've moved from London up to Glasgow so haven't got a clue, MOT is due May, no holes just yet but definate bubbles from the sills up through the front of the Arches on both side
