T25 restoration East Sussex

Post by gilbertsnz »

Hi One and All, i am i guess a born again dubber (45) I first owned a oval window in 1987 but never finished restoring it an i met the girl of my dreams and sold it to take her on holiday...... 25 years later and we are still together (Me and my wife not the beetle) We have recently got a 1980 T25 pop top and now she wants to go on holiday again.... Can anyone recommend a reasonably priced restorer (for the van not the wife) in the East Sussex area (closer to Seaford is best) lots of welding and painting, mechanically its good and i will attempt the inside myself. When its done im sure i can sell her the idea of run to the sun and vanfest...etc
Any advice would be appreciated.
Mark and Anna

Hi there, have you looked at Beetle Werks near Littlehampton? Might be a tad too far away.
