I am 5 miles south of Banbury, so let me know if I can be of help.

Thanks David, much appreciated. I love the E Type, i was lucky enough to recomission one in my late teens and taking it for a test drive was a reall reward! How much have you had to fabricate?
I know what you mean about the standards. Being in the VW scene there are very few people who are able or willing to keep repairs to a factory standard. Not just becuase if the skill involved but i think its also todo with the customer and investment levels. Personally i do try to set a better standard but ive not had the top notch skills handed down to me.
allthough i will say there are a few people in the UK really pushig the VW restoration, Matt being one of them. There end product is flawless!
