Finally decided to get my s**t together and get my GP on the road, the frame (indian) isn't in too bad a state but... being a import its hardly perfect, the frame needs the outriggers etc sorting out and the frame could do with a check-up on a jig etc, the lip which the panels sit on is a bit thin in places and could do with a tidy up. So who do you recommend to do the work? I know theres Mike Phoenix, C.S engineering, but who else? someone who's competitively priced would be nice (short hand - I'm not made of money ) I'm based in Devon but happy to ship etc, cheers Paul

Mike phoenix sorted out my series 3 sidepanels which were paper thin with rust
great job and a good price

Shaun burns in County Durham is a top man for this too.

I can't say he's any better than Mike phoenix as I've never used him, but I'd class his work as perfect so he's certainly not worse. Interestingly, he has an original frame jig from the eibar factory.

I have used Mike Benson Wilson in Tewkesbury. He has a jig of sorts, but also works with the panel work to get all the gaps right. He repairs and fabricates for classic cars and knows his stuff.

Not John Benson Wilson then?

Unless he's got a brother. I can recommend John. He's sorted out a few frames for me and definitely knows his stuff. If you want his number PM me.

Peter Gavey! Darlington
