PANEL BEATER?

Todd from Enner Glynn

Kia ora all, my 17 year old son worked hard & saved to buy himself his first car........"Maggie", a purple 1972 Austin 1300 "landcrab". Quite distinctive, you may have seen it around.

He was well informed of the potential ongoing cost of purchasing a vehicle of that age, but wanted something to suit his personality : ), and its a great father / son regular maintenance project!

The seller arranged for a new WOF which it passed "with flying colours"............but not sure how, as when taking it in for a WOF check yesterday ( only 5 mths later ), "a few" issues need attending to.

So back to work for my son to raise the funds to remedy these issues ( likely to get a wee bit of help from the bank of Mum & Dad, its his pride & joy, and he has had a tough year for a number of reasons )

The reason for this post is to see if anyone out there knows of a reputable, reasonably priced panel beater able to deal with perhaps the biggest issue......some rust in the floor & right hand sill.

Maggie turns heads wherever she goes, its awesome to see the smiles on the faces of other motorists & pedestrians alike as she passes, so it would be great to keep her on the road.

Would appreciate any feedback.

Many thanks in advance from myself & my son.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
