As per the title, Does anyone have a recommendation for a company who could help with custom car work such as custum panels etc / shooting brake conversion?
In the UK is a must and not the likes of Zagato et el because my pockets are certainly not that deep!

Many thanks!

RS Panels in Nuneaton build bodies, C, D and Etypes, and I believe they built the body for Nick Masons 250 GTO, so they have the skills.

grab yourself a copy of Custom Car magazine a lot of companies advertise in there

You list your location as London, so maybe get along to some of the car meets and talk to the guys there about where they got work done

i have seen the work by both of the below and was impressed by it

Many thanks for all the responses. I am hoping to find a company that will help me customise and transform a car. It will involve new front bonnet, wings modifications to door skin. Interior from another car along with modifications. Oh and i have to convert it from lhd also! Basically making a car that doesn't currently exist in a manufacturers range.

Once it's underway I will tell all!
