In need of restoration!

[khandoattitude]

Hey there sods (if that’s how you guys refer to each other on here),

I’ve finally done it, against my lovely wife’s wishes I have bought my dream classic car; the Ford Escort mk 2. However, it does need a bit of work and I’ll be moving to Essex in a couple of weeks’ time. I’m looking for any reliable car restoration companies in the region and have found a couple.

Car Colour Services - Buy Car and Motorcycle Paint Supplies and Equipment Online - Car Colour Services

And

CL Classics Vehicle Restoration - CL Classics | Classic Car Restorers | Essex | UK

Have you guys used any of these before or would recommend any others. Let me know!

To be fair mate try and find a company who has/still restores FORDS as opposed to jags etc .They will most likely have some parts already in stock.Dont worry about paint factors as the restorer will deal with that.What mk 2 you got

Dont go by web sites alone, visit the places and see what there up too, earlier this year i was trying to find a company to do some restoration for me, and took the time to visit 4 i had picked out from the www, which suggested anything and everything could be done, what an eye opener i wouldnt have given them a tonka toy to work on, needless to say im doing it all myself.
