I love seeing bodywork go through the stages, as and Tom is a member on here, I thought would take opportunity to show what he can do, and give him very high recommendation to you all.
to paint the door shut
This was car next day, and at Trax

Hope wasn't to much for you all!
In short, go to Lemass, or post your stuff to him like I do sometimes.

I do all the paintwork but the prep and repairs are now a shared effort. I am a very strict boss though. Anything done in a way I don't approve of and he knows about it

I nearly didn't get it as when asked
"where do you see yourself in ten years?"
I replied
"I'd love my own bodyshop"
Had to blag it in a second interview saying my prospects would be better at Bodytechnics
