Respray for TVR

[fredd1e]

Looking for recommendations for someone North east based to respray my TVR. Tried Heaton coach works and they aren't keen to take on full resprays these days quoting over 8 months to start and equally long times to complete. I was hoping to find someone local to the north east rather than the usual Blackpool located shops so anyone got places they know of noting it's a full colour change paint job.

The only place I would take my car is still some way away, that is Chris Gregory down Knaresborough area

Cheers Dodgepot, I'm in touch with Chris and their initial cost estimate is significantly better than what Heaton punted out which also made S&D cost estimates look like a bargain. Maybe theres a dearth of decent paint shops locally and/or all are just interested in doing accident and repair work.

Try Tony at Hexham HC, he uses someone local to him and had my Tuscan 2 s done and a freind had his cerbera done to an exceptional standard reasonably priced too

Months late I know but that 'someone' is (or at least was) Trevor Hignett.

Who did you get to do the work eventually? and were you happy, pm me if anything that might fall foul of name and shame.

Anyone else have any local recommendations? I need some work doing after a sackless old person decided to try and hitch a ride

Or http://www.autorefinishing.co.uk at Knaresborough
