Hi
Can anyone recommend somewhere in or near Brighton that will do a decent job of painting a 1991 Westfaila T25 with Hi-Top? She's in need of a fresh coat
Cheers
Al

Try Leewards in Worthing. He does loads of t3s. He drives a crew cab too.

This guy did our car for a really reasonable price:
Bodyworx
The Old Warehouse Studio, Mill Rd, Portslade, Brighton, East Sussex BN41 1PD
01273 414183
Not sure if he does campers, but thinking of phoning him myself to see if he can do some work on my van. Maybe worth a call.

Thanks Jason
Body Worx did a top job!
For the record they do a lot of T25s and he said that mine was the best he had ever worked on

Glad it worked out. Good to know of another t3 friendly bodyshop in the area.

Hi top painted too, or left plastic? At what cost? Did you do any of the prep? Can we see some pics please?

I left the top as is... it's white so not an eye sore like a faded red one...
No prep work, though the rust was purely cosmetic. They did it for £550. They also sorted out some of the cosmetic rust on the gas tank and a few other lower parts. They turned it around in 48 hours.
It's the first job I've had done and so I'm no expert but for me it was like... wow that looks sweet!
I'll put some picks up soon
cheers
Al
