Hi gents,

Have seen a couple of nice Cerbs recently at good prices.

However they're not really to my liking color-wise...how much would we be talking for a full respray in black?

Thanks!

You do realise black ones are the slowest?

Sorry, can't help, but surface and design blackpool are without doubt, highly recommended, with lots of TVR experience, try giving them a shout.

Autocraft in Herefordshire did a beautiful job on an early E-type for me a couple of years ago. Give Ted a call on 01531 670438.

The real work is in the preparation and black shows every imperfection. I thinks it's fair to say that a fibreglass TVR shell isn't exactly the best starting point either whistle

Notwithstanding that, I'd actually really fancy doing mine black too, but you'd want to make sure that it was done properly. I reckon that any change out of £2k would be good value for a first class job.

ETA 10 points for anyone who can spot the (not so obvious!) difference between the two photos...

That's a whole 10 points Sir bow

It was beautiful. All retrimmed in Connolly hide, totally stripped and rebuilt throughout.

The thing is, I keep getting this urge to start taking the Cerb aparthehe
