If it is mechanical restoration rather than body work, I would speak to CP Garage in Dundee

It needs a bit of both, engine and bodywork. The engine ran 15 years ago but it's been sitting for 15 years, it's not seized but I haven't tried to start it. I'd like a full rebuild as part of it's recommissioning.

The body work is fair but not to the standard I'd like so some minor repairs and a respray are on the cards.

Bob Falconer in Arbroath is well used to body work on classic vehicles and works to a very high standard, but has a waiting list: https://www.facebook.com/bobfalconerairbrushing/
He doesn't do as many of his fantastic airbrushing jobs these days, but has moved more to restoring high end cars.

If you want perfection then Classic Restorations in Alyth will do all the work to concourse standard.

You'll need deep pockets though
