Just posting for a moan really. The body shop thats doing my car is really getting on my nerves. After missed completion date after missed completion date the car is now being picked up and brought home still no further forward than it was months ago. car has all been straightened out after the accident and been cut ready to get the replacement parts welded back on. However my patience has now run out with him so the car is being delivered back to me and I need to find someone to put it back together

Finding a good body shop is the hardest thing - harder than a good mechanic almost. I feel for you as my Z is back in the body shop - a different one too!

How far are you willing to send it?

I can highly recommend Clark Motorsport up in Aberdeen.

 

 

I also used to drive past this place most days when I was working on the new Forth Road Bridge: http://www.sitechracing.co.uk/

They always had a scattering of Supra's and stuff out the front. They don't list bodywork on their website, but I would assume they have a trusted place they use.

Aberdeen is probably a bit far. There is a few near me that people have recommended so gonna speak to them once the car is back then hopefully get it moving again

Yes - brown rain!

I feel your pain Del, left mine at the bodyshop last tues before i went on my holiday, i popped in today expecting to pick up the wing mirrors to put back together and was absolutely pissed at seeing it parked exactly where i left it before i went, with nothing done. He has promised it will be done by wednesday, but doesnt leave me much time to sort the trims and bits.

well guess where my zed is! still in the same bodyshop waiting on it getting picked up doing my head in

Want me to go round and put a bit weight behind it? Lol

supposedly he has arranged it to be picked up so hopefully get a date on Monday when I speak to him.
