Decent morris welder's

Hi does anyone know of any good garages/welder's in the N London/Herts area.
I'm in Cheshunt Herts so the closer the better really.
Got a 58 four door sitting in my garden and i'm not gonna have time to do anything with it so i thought i might shop around for some quotes.

Repair panel choices

Hi new to the forum, so please bear with me. I've just taken ownership of 58, 1000 4 door. The whole underside seems pretty gone. I've never had any experience with Morris's. I know with VW's the panel quality varies majorly between. I guess what i'm asking is, is there major differences in quality ...

Re: New member introduction

Hi Jon. You need to send a V62 form to the DVLA with a payment of £25. They will then write to the last known owner of the vehicle to ask if it has been stolen. If they don't receive a reply after a certain amount of time they will issue you with a new V5C. Here's a PDF version of the V62 form that...

I'm completely new to the Morris, I've worked on a Beetle before and have basic welding skills, I also have a engineering workshop...
