Have just seen that due to a number of factors Alex is limiting his activities to a smaller focus (such a shame when he appeared To be making a success of his business).

I need to get my car back on the road after some years SORN’d and I really liked his proposition for chassis refurb - are there any recommended alternative suppliers which do the same / similar?

I’m located in Devon but happy to consider travel for good work

It’s where I’d take mine, there is lots of great help offered on these forums by the guys there.

Not had a chassis refurb done, but they did a full engine rebuild on my Chim and have done all routine servicing / MOTs etc over the last few years- would definitely recommend. They seem to do a LOT of TVR business.

They also always have a ton of interesting stuff in their 'hangar' so it's always an interesting trip over there! biggrin

Ok, thanks.

I did speak to them a while back about an outrigger replacement, and the price did seem reasonable.

They’re local, too thumbup
