Chassis Painting

[aruck]

Can anyone offer some advise please..

I'm sure this information is in the search somewhere but I can't find it!
I am after getting the chassis painted on the S. I've heard quotations ranging from circa £500 to £2000! Anybody got any good suggestions of where to go around the midlands area? Prices? Was going to give Joospeed a call as heard someone mention that they had theirs done there but there are no contact details on the website (or I'm going blind!).

Check out these threads, quite a lot of activity on other TVR forums recently.

Moore Racing gets mentioned on page 2, having done an S recently...

Over the last year I have heard a few good reports on Moore Racing and their chassis refurb/painting. I think they are the first point of call for the Midlands owners and I'm on my way there as well.

BTW a full body off refurb with powder coated chassis seems to be about the 3k mark

Short of a lottery win...I will be under mine again next year then with hammerite and waxoil.

Mine is up at Moore Racing right now having the chassis welded and repainted. It's having new outriggers and seatbelt mounts put in.

Dropped it off last Sunday and Richard has just emailed me to say he reckons it will be ready by Saturday!!!! Wasn't expecting as quick a turnaround as that and I may have to leave it with him for a week more before I can get back over to him.

Top job from looking at the pictures of the work so far.

I can also recommend Moore racing having had my car repaired painted and wax oiled there recently.

Sorry to all those who have seen this pic on other threads but I have recently discovered
the copy and paste buttons on my keyboard
So it might be obvious to most of you but my work tools consist of a hammer
........... and a bigger hammer.
