Hello! Used to belong to the MMOC years ago - pleased to see it go digital! Have a 1962 Black Morris 1000, Bess.
However, she failed her MOT - needing 'extensive welding' that the garage not prepared to do (grrrr).
Which forum should I post in to ask if anyone could recommend someone in North Yorkshire?
Many thanks - and hello!

welcome to the forum!
cant really recommend anyone in yorkshire I am in the east riding and the welding i had done locally was not very good. But there are plenty of good places, you might need to go a bit further afield thats all. or buy a mig and have a go yourself? I would post in the "bodywork" section about the welding.
Good luck,
Picky

Good morning, isn't it lovely out there?
I'm currently living near Wetherby - but in the process of moving to Malham - house there has a lovely dry garage for Bess. I took her to a place in Kirkstall, Leeds who said that they would be able to do the welding on her - but estimated the work to be 250 quid or so.... Ouch...
Hey ho - she is on the road (no pun intended) to being back on the road - hurrah!

£250 the repairs cant have been that extensive then as down here a half chassis leg would cost around £160.
