Bodyshop in Scotland that does T25s.

Post by JamieWhite62 »

Hi all.. I was talking with Marcus from slaughterhouse customs..he suggested I ask on here if any members know of a decent bodyshop in Scotland that restores T25s..the local ones in Moray seem reluctant or sound like they would only do a minimum effort job..hopefully there is a decent vw restorer north of the border. Cheers in advance.

Hi Jamie,

Depending on where you are in Moray and how far you are prepared to travel I know of a guy over Beauly way; I'm not sure if he's still working so I can check for you if you like?

Here you go Jamie............

JW AUTOBODY - John 07900 314 962 - www.jwautobody.com

John Westwater at the above. He's a one man band, knows his stuff especially T3s, and has a waiting list (the good ones always do). He said that as the van is in Beauly it would be a shame not to have a look at it if you can wait.

Although he's only done welding on my van (which was excellent) I've seen some of his resto work and he comes with a good rep.

Cheers,
Mick.

We used Andy Leslie at https://www.facebook.com/sleepingindiancoachworks/

He's done some really tricky bodywork restoration on T25s and knows what he's doing. Not cheap, and a you'll probably have to wait a year for a space - but he's good.
