Re: factory seals

I just bought a set of screen seals from Chris Monday , got them yesterday
Always good service
C&C are really good to deal with, have used them many times for split & bay stuff,just always
dealt with Chris for many years & never any problems, he restores a few so knows what fits/works

Needs to be bare-metalled to see what on earth is going on under there
Waste of new panels, was it done by a specialist in t25s?
Looks like a diy first attempt...

Keep up the good work!
Just finishing off a doka I've been doing

Just interested, as there are often different opinions about a fair rate (for proper repairs, not quick bodges/blowovers)
