I feel we should have a pinned thread so we can list our recommended and not so recommended welding company's(each separate threads)

I had an extremely good company my moggy went to for some welding to get her through her mot

This is the first time I'd ever gone to a company of such so was a little eary but well after 2 days of work she was finished
I went to inspect and a lot of work had been done and all done over my expectations
This is just a few bits of work done

ADMIN!!!!! hint hint xD

Thanks for the info....My local Minor man has retired (SGM Minors in Fordingbridge) so its good to know of another. I have had a lot of work done on my car by Bodytech at Dinton, Wiltshire. Rob there is ex Charlie Ware so has loads of Minor experience. They did a floor pan and chassis leg for me last year and very well too. Not particularly cheap but I was more interested in having it done properly.

That's quite alright I told them how happy I was and that I would definitely recommend them to the group so I did lol

oh he must have loads of experience then
Well that's what I wanted, was the job to be done properly and it was and at a really good price aswell

As regards Bodytech - do not forget their open day on the 28th of this month , see latest Minor Matters 'New Advertiser', page 6 for details.

If you are in the area - the Fovant Badges which are just over the hill at Fovant are well worth a viewing.

This is the collection of memorabilia linked to the Fovant badges that was/is on display at the Pembroke Arms, Fovant. The collection may still be there but will be checked out (as well as the beer) on the 28th post visit to Bodytech

Yes, thanks for the reminder. We are supposed to be going from the TVME club to the open day but I have to work so can't be there....

Fovant is indeed well worth a visit and it has a handy layby for when you miss the Dinton turn off!

TVME ??????

Sorry you have to work as I am certain it will be a good event.
