    West midlands welder/restoration?

    Hi people, I'm wondering if anyone knows where is a good place to get some welding/mild restoration work in the west midlands? (Closer to Worcester the better)
    Floor pan and sills need work on my s13, any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks people..

    I know of a place in Ludlow. They aren't the cheapest but they make up for it in quality of work. Let me know if you want their details and I'll dig them out.

    Bear with me, I'm trying to find out which of the two addresses I have for them is current (they moved a couple of years ago).

    They haven't done anything of mine yet but my brother has had a lot of work done by them and I've been to their workshop while they were doing a bare metal respray on a Fiesta RS Turbo he had at the time (welding new metal in place of rust as they went) and of course I saw the final result. If I'm not mistaken, it was featured in one of the Ford scrabblewagon magazines (Fast Ford maybe?). I'll see if I can find some pictures - he's bound to have some.

    Huxley is the man, have a few friends that have had cages ect done by him, waiting list is long last time I checked and he seems more in to doing cages and custom jobs rather than restoration, in hindsight I should have booked in a month ago but I was way too busy with work, if all else fails I'll get myself on his waiting list

    Here is the one I'm on about:

    SB Auto body repair
    http://www.yell.com/biz/s-b-auto-bod...udlow-2698509/

    I've got some pictures of the work they did in that fiesta (fast ford feature was 2006 apparently). Just got to work out how to upload them from my phone.

    He's turned down a job from me before, admittedly it was quite a bad bit of rot on my last s13 but he told me himself it would be do able he just said he wouldn't do it lol, my neighbour is friends with him and a couple of mates have had cage's and stuff done, all of them had about a 6 week wait for him to do it as he's a busy busy guy, I don't really want to wait, I want to get it done ASAP so I can crack on with other mods which would make my shell none rolling for a little while.

    I just edited the post - google drive won't let you embed the shared link as an image, had to use URLs instead.
