just had my syncro revitalised ... Went in for a nasty rust patch welding and the inevitable repaint( lh5u) met blue ... Quote £2200 ... Well once they started getting down to business I needed a total 48 hrs of true craftsman panel making and welding ... Total bill inc a total valet £3520 and it looks like a new van and I mean a NEW van !!!
So if you're on Cornwall and need a job doing PROPERLY ... Message me for their number !!!

I think £3.5K would be enough to make me remember. 
Pics or it didn't happen.

Re: Incredible body shop ( Cornwall )
When you say 48 hours, is that 8 days work on the van? I'm asking because I have to do a big job on mine which would be at least 5 days.
Thanks!
Thanks!

It's what it looks like in a years time that is important.
After my £3.5K resto, mine looked perfect, like new................................... for 6 months
Having said that, I hope yours remains good for years

I fear that this will be the case with mine!
48hrs work for £3500 seems a lot? Obviously there are material and paint costs in there also. I might go see how mine is getting on today!
